Full-time students progress to Year 2 provided that they earned a minimum of 45 credits from Year 1 subjects and settled their tuition fee in full. In order to progress to Year 3 students must earn a minimum of 45 credits from Year 2 and pass all examinations from Year 1 (60 credits) and settle their tuition fee in full. Access to examinations in specific modules in Year 3 is linked to prerequisites (e.g. a specific examination of Year 2 is the prerequisite for access the examination in Year 3).

Part-time students progress to Year 2 provided that they earned a minimum of 20 credits from Year 1 subjects and settled their tuition fee in full. In order to progress to Year 3 part-time students must pass all examinations from Year 1 (60 credits), earn a minimum of 20 credits from Year 2 and settle their tuition fee in full. Access to examinations in specific modules in Year 3 is linked to prerequisites (e.g. a specific examination of Year 2 is the prerequisite for access the examination in Year 3).

Students are entitled to the graduate candidate status in accordance with the applicable legislation and regulations.

Students can submit the topic of their diploma, when they have no more than two remaining examinations. Prior to the defence of their diploma thesis students must complete all study programme requirements. The studies are completed by the preparation and successful defense of the diploma thesis or successfully by passing two additional examinations, specified by the study programme. Thereby students earn a total of 180 credits and acquire the professional title of diplomirani organizator turizma (VS) or diplomirana organizatorka turizma (VS).

Enrolment (into a higher year) without the required number of credits can be granted by the Committee for Study Affairs of the Undergraduate Study Programme on the basis of students’ applications.

Repetition: students who fail to meet the progression requirements can repeat the year. During the entire duration of studies students can repeat a year only once without the payment of the tuition fee. In this event students must only pay the costs of re-enrolment according to the valid price list.

Extension of student status: students can request the extension of their student status for a single year, if:

Candidates can also pass examinations as residents. This option refers to the enrolment of citizens in the registry of participants in education who autonomously engage in specific subjects or parts of the part-time study programme under the conditions which apply for the implementation of the programme. Individuals who are engaged in education as residents do not hold the student status. Residents receive a certificate stating the grade and the number of acquired credits for each passed examination. Residents do not have a specified curriculum or year of study programme and can thus not request the recognition of examinations and knowledge from other schools and/or their work experience.
Residents pay the admission fee and all examination fees according to the applicable price-list.

Recognition of examinations

In accordance with FKPV Regulations on the Testing and Assessment of Knowledge, students who were enrolled in other higher education programmes prior to their enrolment at the Faculty of Commercial and Business Sciences can request the recognition of their previously passed examinations. Examinations can be recognised in full or in part, depending on the compatibility of syllabuses, however only for the study year in which the student is enrolling. Requests for the recognition of examinations must enclose the certificate of completed examinations, including the grade and date of the completion of examination, the subject syllabus, which must be confirmed by the relevant school, and a copy of the receipt of payment of the request fee. On the basis of the proposal of the relevant subject lecturer, the final decision regarding the recognition of examination is made by the Committee for Study Affairs of the Undergraduate Study Programme.

Recognition of subject requirements for work practice is done by the work practice coordinator on the basis of the student’s request, while this proposal is confirmed by the Committee for Study Affairs of the Undergraduate Study Programme. The criterion for the recognition of the suitability of work experience is the similarity of the subject’s operational objectives and tasks and responsibilities carried out by the student during employment.

Exceptions for the recognition of examinations:

Work practice is recognised in part to students, who have at least 2 years of suitable work experience. In this case the students must complete the specified number of hours of work practice in a company, and prepare a written report on the work practice. Students must submit the request with enclosed supporting documents within the specified deadline.

Deadlines for submission of requests:

Recognition of informally acquired knowledge and skills

The Faculty of Commercial and Business Sciences will recognise students’ knowledge and skills acquired prior to their enrolment in undergraduate study programmes, in full or in part, depending on whether they correspond in full or in part to the general and subject-specific competencies and undergraduate programme content.

The faculty can recognise knowledge and training acquired through formal, informal or non-formal learning. The basis for the recognition is a written request with enclosed formal certificates and a summary of the programme and/or other supporting documents which can be used in the assessment. The level of recognition of study requirements is approved by the Committee for Study Affairs for Undergraduate Studies, which also determines the corresponding credits and grades.

On the basis of the above-specified documentation, including the opinion of the relevant subject lecturer, the Committee for Study Affairs for Undergraduate Studies decides on the full or partial recognition of the full or partial recognition of study requirements for specific subject, seminar or other requirements with due consideration of specific subjects.

The above-specified criteria apply only for knowledge acquired in Slovenia, not abroad.
