I've forgotten, also need to explain: I meant to say that FVES is OK when it comes to their status as a university in Czech republic.
But yes, what they offer is controversial - definitely if offered outside of CZ to people who expect accredited BA education.
I don't have time to fully analyze from legal point of view what they offer, but even after a short skim, their claims regarding accreditation and being under supervision of ministry of education in Czech republic are not quite exact. Their university is fully under jurisdiction and supervision of Polish authorities. Here in Czech republic, basically they only announce what they teach and if they have accreditation for that in Poland, they are fine- they "get the stamp".
From that perspective, they are accredited to teach bachelor level Administration and master level Administration and Economics programs in Czech republic, and that is granted by Polish accreditation commission.
What they offer - eg. DBA - is definitely not considered as doctoral degree in Czech republic. It has no value here from academic stand point. It doesn't matter that it is taught by accredited university - they are only accredited to teach what was mentioned before.
If they were offering eg. Phd degrees, or say bachelor degrees not in Administration but for example in computer science, that would be illegal.
But they offer DBA, MBA,.... it's not illegal here, anybody can grant here those degrees, I can grant you DBA too as in Czech republic I have same granting powers for DBA as FVES - those letters DBA MBA LLD etc. mean nothing here, they are not recognized by any laws.
They claim they have accredited those degrees with AAHEA. That's the ONLY granting power their degrees stem from. AFAIK AAHEA is a fake/phony accreditation agency used by degree mills. (I had to look it up, but even without checking the AAHEA just look at the accreditations pictures in their promos - United Nations logo on them, such simple-minded scam from AAHEA....)
Anybody who would like to use those degrees in academic world or needs a degree that is based on real accreditation should definitely avoid those degrees. It doesn't matter that university is accredited, those diplomas (MBA BBA DBA LLB LLD ...) are just a piece of worthless paper from academic point of view.
(However, I definitely don't know how those validation agencies in North America etc. would look at it. Maybe it would still be worth something. But I wouldn't recommend taking unnecessary risks.)
