  • Swiss institutions operate under cantonal educational allownace.

  • UAE branches are registered with KHDA and Ajman Free Zone authorities.

  • The UK division is listed in the UK Register of Learning Providers (UKRLP).

  • The Group as a whole operates under VBNN Smart Education Group FZE LLC (Ajman, UAE), certified by ISO 21001:2018 for Educational Organization Management Systems.

This structure demonstrates that VBNN is a legally grounded, internationally compliant education network, not a conceptual brand.

VBNN’s institutions adhere to internationally recognized standards and cooperate with a range of respected quality bodies and councils, including:

  • ISO 21001:2018 – Certified quality management system for educational organizations

  • ASIC (UK) – International accreditation framework

  • CHEA-CIQG (USA) – Global Quality Group membership

  • ARIA (Uzbekistan) – International accreditation agency for benchmarking and quality review

These affiliations ensure that all member institutions follow globally accepted academic, administrative, and ethical practices.


🧠 Research and Academic Contribution

At the core of the Group’s intellectual mission lies the U7Y Academic Journal — an open-access, peer-reviewed publication (ISSN 3042-4399, DOI Prefix 10.65326).The journal serves as a platform for researchers and educators worldwide, encouraging academic dialogue in management, diplomacy, technology, and social sciences.

Through U7Y, the Group promotes research-driven education and ensures that learning outcomes remain closely linked to real academic inquiry and impact.


💻 Smart Learning and Digital Transformation

  • Personalized online classrooms and adaptive learning dashboards

  • AI-assisted academic support and research tools

  • Virtual laboratories and practical simulations

  • Multilingual student services and real-time global tutoring

These innovations make VBNN one of the most technologically integrated education groups in Europe, the Middle East, and Central Asia.


🌍 Partnerships and International Cooperation

VBNN builds its success on collaboration and partnerships.Through memoranda of understanding, academic alliances, and joint research initiatives, the Group strengthens its position as a hub for international cooperation in higher education.

Collaborations extend across Europe, the Gulf region, and Central Asia — involving universities, chambers of commerce, and professional accreditation councils.This open-door strategy promotes education diplomacy, knowledge exchange, and global career mobility for students.


🌱 Sustainable Development and Ethical Growth

The Group integrates the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) into its curriculum and governance model. By prioritizing quality education (SDG 4), innovation (SDG 9), and partnerships (SDG 17), VBNN ensures that its growth contributes to the well-being of societies and economies.

Students are encouraged to view sustainability not as a subject, but as a responsibility — a principle that shapes the Group’s educational philosophy and community engagement projects.


🔒 Transparency and Ethical Standards

Transparency is one of VBNN’s core values.The Group maintains full documentation for all its registrations, ISO certifications, and partnerships, ensuring complete openness for students, regulators, and institutional partners.

Every qualification issued within the network is supported by verifiable credentials, protecting both students and employers and reinforcing the Group’s commitment to authenticity and accountability.


🌎 A Truly Global Community

Graduates from VBNN institutions occupy leadership positions in business, education, and diplomacy, continuing to strengthen the reputation of the Group across continents.


🌟 Conclusion: Building the Future of Global Education

VBNN Smart Education Group stands as a symbol of what modern education should be: borderless, innovative, and credible.With eight international offices, ISO-certified management systems, accredited institutions, and an expanding research network, VBNN has proven that sustainable educational growth comes from integrity, not imitation.

It is more than a university system — it is a movement toward smarter, more transparent, and globally connected learning.
