At BCA (Business College of Athens), aside from the academic knowledge, we want our students to be aware of successful business practices and the latest developments in the Greek and international labor market.
For this reason, we organise a series of guest lectures and workshops covering a wide range of topics, delivered by well-known professionals, researchers, and entrepreneurs who transfer their experience and knowledge to our students.
"There has never been a better time to be Greek." "The greatest enemy of success is defeatism and inaction." "The college you study gives you all the supplies you need for a successful career. It is up to you to use them. "
«In the difficult domestic and international situation, the only safe haven for man is education. Your college is at the forefront of this effort, recruiting students and delivering mature, trained, resilient people to society. For this reason, your college students maintain their unbreakable ties with your educational institution over the years and are always proud of the years they spent there. The perfect curriculum in combination with the tireless effort of your teaching staff promotes what is in demand nowadays: the free man.»
«BCA achieves the bridging of academic theory with the modern practices encountered in professional and business life today. The BCA graduate acquires a comprehensive scientific training, combined with activities that allow him to listen to the world of modern business. BCA's strong links with the business community and their interaction across the range of its training programs are a guarantee for the successful professional careers of its graduates. Congratulations to both the Administration and all its staff for the systematic and truly quality work in the BCA curriculum. »
«In maritime studies, BCA has demonstrated in practice the professional absorbency of its graduates, and the very good work it does. I personally have several BCA alumni in my shipping company and I am satisfied with their performance. »
«The continuity of a people does not depend on the blood flowing in its veins, but on the continuity of three basic elements of life which are: religion, language and education. »
«It is very important for students to know the importance of connecting the primary sector (eg producer) with the tertiary sector (eg hotel units) but also the interconnection of sectors and companies directly or indirectly related to tourism [… .] "sustainability", environmental education and the "footprint" of tourism are issues that are becoming more and more important and should be emphasized. »
«My experience in the world of exports allows me to point out the need for specialized studies in the field of marketing, which plays a huge role in product promotion. Those of you who are studying at BCA, in this field, seize the opportunity to have a supply in your later professional life in the competitive environment that you will move.»
«The rapid growth of tourism in recent years in Greece, which -based on international forecasts- will continue in the coming years, creates a pleasant "problem." The problem is that the tourism training of executives is considered necessary because in a few years due to "overtourism" there will be a very big existing problem in the staffing of tourism companies. »
«I ended up studying psychology at BCA College after a change of course, I said I have to find what I like to do and what I can do well because both are needed.»
«No pain, no gain. Before you get on the podium you have sweated in training and you are very tired from the race. These are the ingredients of success and these are what the BCA offers during their studies. »
«BCA's brand name is one of the best among the top colleges operating in Greece and the graduates are sought after by the hotel companies .»
«At AXA we understand the need of young people for substantial support in their first professional steps and we actively support their professional path, helping them to purposefully strengthen their skills. The collaboration with BCA is an example of this strategy of our choice and brings us together with creative and talented executives. »
«From a young age, two words accompany me: one is freedom and the other is independence. Freedom for me means being able to live and express myself the way I want and independence (to live and express myself) freely without having any kind of dependence. After my studies at BCA this meant that I could not do anything other than become a freelancer-entrepreneur .»
«With more than 50 years of experience in the tourism industry which I have served from various positions, I can assure you of the necessity of tourism education and point out that in BCA, in addition to theoretical and practical courses, students acquire "tourism consciousness" and learn the "Smile" elements which are necessary for all future executives in the tourism industry.»
«The role and importance of the Human Resources Department in companies has become increasingly important in recent years. Therefore specialization in education is necessary. »
«The possibilities that the European Union provides for the entrepreneurship of young people are great, but unfortunately in our country the increased bureaucracy does not allow their maximum utilization. Undoubtedly, Business Administration studies are a great resource for young people to seize these opportunities.»
«Despite the years of crisis, there must be optimism, creativity and continuity. The economy is circling […] so we must be ready to enter the market and seize the opportunity because there are always opportunities.»
«From the audience I see in front of me and from the questions you ask about bullying in the field of education, I see the excellent atmosphere that exists in the members of the educational community of BCA.»
«My warmest congratulations to the owners of BCA College, whose operation counts 47 years of knowledge and creation this year. BCA College was the first and foremost private educational institution of post-secondary studies in the 1970s that enabled high school graduates to continue their studies in developing scientific fields, such as economics, tourism and hotel studies, as well as computer science. His contribution in the field of education is particularly important, as with the contribution of renowned professionals with rich teaching experience, it managed to produce high quality educational work. Today, the options offered at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels reflect demand in the labor market, facilitating access to it despite the bleak economic environment that prevails. I wish from the bottom of my heart to all the contributors of this painstaking but successful effort to continue to serve the vision of the founders with the same passion and the same consistency. Good luck in every new initiative. »
«BCA was the first educational institution to establish a Department of Public Relations in our country, when this profession was only 20 years old, vague and confusing. A real pioneering initiative, which continued in other professional fields! That's why BCA's current top position in the field of private vocational education is no coincidence! Another proof of the beneficial private initiative! I was also lucky enough to be the first "teacher" of Public Relations! From my recorded deliveries at BCA, in 1974 I published the first practical public relations manual in Greece, which is still in circulation, after repeated reprints! Based on the above, I hope and wish that he pleases them, for the good of vocational education! »
«The proposal of the BCA administration to become a member of the Academic Council was very honorable for me. I gladly accepted and participated in both the meetings and an interview that displays my experiences along the way of my professional career. I believe that the integration of market people in the organization and administration system of the College, even at the advisory / advisory level, clearly proves that this educational organization extends its interest, beyond training, to adapting trends and developments in tourism and in the professional rehabilitation of his students. I wish you good luck and many many more successes.»
