International A Levels are a globally recognised school-leaving qualification from the British education system. They are considered a classic preparation for university study and are based on a small number of carefully chosen subjects studied in greater depth. The examinations are internationally standardised.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
Yes. International A Levels are generally recognised in Switzerland. As with all international qualifications, recognition depends on the subject combination and the requirements of the individual university or higher education institution. Academia Matura supports students in planning the right pathway.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
This programme is particularly suitable for people who:<\/p>\n
International A Levels offer many advantages:<\/p>\n
\u00abYou quickly notice that the teachers are highly experienced and very knowledgeable. They gave me things to take away that went far beyond the syllabus.\u00bb

Yes. It is possible to start with both a Federal Vocational Certificate (EBA) and a Federal Diploma of Vocational Education and Training (EFZ). Many of our students come to us through the second-chance education route.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
Yes. International A Levels are structured in such a way that you can start even without having attended grammar school. What matters most is motivation, willingness to learn and a realistic plan. In a consultation, we work out together which starting level is right for you.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
There is no fixed upper age limit. Typically, students begin between around 15 and 30 years of age, but it is also possible to start later. What matters is not your age, but your goal and the right learning structure.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
Yes. The study model is designed so that it can also be completed alongside work, depending on your workload and subject choices. Many of our students combine school and employment.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
Yes. International A Levels are an international qualification and are therefore especially attractive for students with an international background or for those who would like to study abroad later on.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
Not necessarily \u2014 a solid basic level of English is important, as lessons, learning materials and examinations are in English. At the same time, English is used continuously in class and specifically developed, allowing our students to improve their language skills significantly over the course of the programme.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
\u00abThanks to the flexible timetable and the subjects tailored to me, I can complete my Matura alongside work at Academia without major difficulties.\u00bb

Very flexible. Depending on the subjects chosen and the study model, the timetable can be arranged individually. The aim is to keep the programme compatible with work, family or other commitments. In addition to being flexible in terms of time, our programme is also flexible in terms of location: you decide whether to attend lessons at one of our campuses or online.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
That depends on your pace and the teaching model. Some students take only a small number of lessons per week on a part-time basis, while others follow a more intensive model with daily lessons combined with independent study. The timetable adapts to your life.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
In principle, yes, especially at the beginning. A change is generally possible at any time, as long as it still makes sense in relation to your study goal and no essential learning content is lost.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
Yes. Part-time study is possible and often chosen, especially by students combining school with work or by talents in sport, music or the arts who need to balance training and education, as well as by students who deliberately wish to reduce their pace.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
Our Flextime courses combine effective learning in small groups with maximum flexibility for your timetable. Each week, you meet in a motivated group of 5 to 10 students to explore a new topic in your A Level subject. Lessons are professionally guided by experienced, qualified teachers.<\/p>\n
The same lesson is offered online twice a week, and you decide which time suits you better.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
