Powering Development - Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow
We’re often described as a world-leading communication school. In the last five years, Berghs’ students have continued to impress at several international competitions receiving many awards, ranking Berghs amongst the top creative schools worldwide.
Take a look at examples of student work that won us awards in the past few years.
Who We Are
At Berghs, we believe in integration – among students, programs, disciplines, subjects, the industry, agencies, entrepreneurs, and organizations. No silos.
Action-based learning is our philosophy. We provide students with theories and tools. Then we asked them to apply that to a practical case. Learning by doing.
Only industry-professionals as instructors. We have few permanent teaching staff at Berghs but a faculty that hires industry professionals and help them to pass their knowledge on to the students. This way content is always fresh and students learn straight from the industry.
Our values
Berghs is a values-driven company. We care about the society that we work in and keep ourselves continuously updated on challenges and solutions that are connected to both our environment and people. We work in an inclusive way and want to contribute to solving real problems. Two of our core values are development and inclusion, which means that we are open to change and finding creative ways of working.
Core values
We stand up for people’s equal worth and are convinced that diversity and inclusion create the optimal circumstances for learning and creativity.
Together, we create a safe environment where creativity can thrive and we dare to test new ideas.
We believe in the positive effects of a diversity of perspectives, experiences, and different ways of thinking and solving problems.
We stand up for an equal culture, and show in words and actions that we support one another.
We use the power of creative problem solving and collaboration in teams.
We want all our employees to experience well-being, feel engagement and take responsibility in the workplace. How we behave towards each other, sharing and collaboration are important to us. We care about the relationship with our students, course participants, and lecturers. Our focus is that the education we offer is of the highest quality and that everyone can learn what we teach in the best way.
Everyone’s contribution builds Berghs. Everyone’s actions are important. Everything communicates!
