1. Evaluation of the study programme

1.1. Goals and tasks of the study programme

The Faculty of Business Administration has started the accreditation process in AACSB (International, The Association to Advance Colegiate Schools of Business).

2. Study programme organisation.

The Marketing and trade administration study programme is composed so as to as precisely as possible to comply with the general goals and tasks of the higher education establishment and the faculty.

The changes that have taken plane in our society within recent years have been establishing more new requirements for the quality of offered education. According to the statistical data 60% of Latvian companies are involved in trade. It means that highly professional marketing and trade specialists are very demanded on the labour market. Working in the administration of trading companies, managers should be able to plan, manage and coordinate the company’s operation. They have to ensure sophisticated use of resources and fulfillment of sales plans. They must know the planning and management of everyday trade activities, as well as to analyse their efficiency. Taking into account all these requirements, there was elaborated appropriate study programme. Studies is organizated by Study regulation (supplement No.7)

Changed in the study programme since the licencing - taking into account the requirements of the labour market and general market development trends the name of the study programme was changed – from Sales management to Marketing and trade management/administration.

To ensure high quality corresponding to the market requirements for the provision of the study process and study programmes, the company carries out frequent opinion polls of different interested parties, as well as the general evaluation of study programmes, study process and company’s operation, evaluation of acquaired data and adoption of appropriate decisions.

Regularly are carried out following opinion polls:

Students’ opinion polls of study courses (at the end of each study course); Students’ opinion poll on the operation of each company’s structural unit (once a year); Graduates’opinion poll (once a year); Employers’ opinion poll (at least once a year);

Results acquired via polls are thoroughly analysed and there are adopted decisions on necessary activities to ensure the increase or maintenance (if the results are satisfactory) in the satisfaction level of clients/interested parties .

The polling process is regulated by the Procedure of Polling.Quality control is implemented by organising the internal quality management system

audits of the company. This strategic management instrument of the company is used to:

evaluate the level at which the operation and processes of the company comply with its mission, vision and strategy, to control the usefulness and efficiency of the processes and operation of the structural units, results of the internal audits serve as a basis for the correction and preventive activities.

The internal audit system is determined by the Regulation on the internal audits in the School of Business Administration Turiba.

11. Possibilities of students to continue education in case of termination of the study programme.

The Constitution of the School of Business Administration Turiba stipulates „The school with all its property guarantees that in a case of termination of a particular programme the students of that programme will be provided possibility to continue education in other study programme or in other establishment of higher education.”

The guarantees involve two aspects – stability of the school (study process quality, provision with academic personnel, financial situation, possibilities of development, projects etc.) and the similarity of the study programme to other study programmes (possibility to continue education if the programme is terminated).

The first aspect allows to forecast the probability of the situation when the study programme is terminated and the school has to provide students with possibilities to continue education.

The second aspect provides insight in the contextual possibility for students to continue the education in other study programmes in case the study programme is terminated. Whether the covered study courses, their contents and credit points gathered will be applicable for the continuation of studies in other study programmes.

The School of Business Administration Turiba Biznesa operates since 1994 (initially as Turiba study centre), and each year it has experienced rapid growth – the introduction of new study programmes, accreditation of programmes, introduction of different study levels, increase in the number of students and lecturers, increase in the turnover and profits.

The rector of the School of Business Administration Turiba signs a contract with each student which determines not only the rights and duties of the school, but also its responsibility. The school provides students with the study process not only for a particular study year, but also for the acquisition of all study programme. A kind of guarantee is also a gradual payment system, which allows to make tuitition fee payments on monthly basis.

Evaluating the financial stability of the School of Business Administration Turiba and the well-established work organisation, it is possible to conclude that there doesn’t exist any threat for the school to terminate its operation.

Therefore one of the guarantees in case of the termination of the study programme is the financial stability of the School of Business Administration Turiba.

The second guarantee is the cooperation agreement signed by the School of Business Administration Turiba and Riga School of Pedagogy and Administration, which foresees to enroll the students of the other school in case of the termination of the programme. Collaboration agreement – supplement No.18

definition of the number and qualification of the staff required by the company (the required number, qualification, etc.);

planning of the personnel costs (wages, social area services, etc.); planning of personnel recruitment (personal contacts, mass media, direct recruitment); planning of the involvement and utilisation of the personnel; planning of the personnel development (career of employees, further education).

Personnel planning means planning of the personnel needs for a future period based upon both the company internal and external environment factors.

Personnel selection

Activities of the process of BAT personnel selection: announcement of a vacancy; previous screening of applicants based upon the submitted documents preparation of a short list of possible applicants; checking references; inviting applicants for an interview; selection interview (including also tests); selection; proposals to successful applicants and preparation of refusals to the others; negotiations with the successful applicants and establishment of the legal employment

relationship (signing the employment contract). The above steps are implemented according to the actual needs in different

combinations and sequence in compliance to the internal regulatory document of BAT (P13).

The employment interview is the central activity of the personnel selection at BAT and after that the employer makes its choice. The employment interview is a focused conversation on topics allowing to gain an impression of the applicant’s experience, abilities, work interests, personal character traits, which could determine the success at work, as well as provision of detailed information on the work, work conditions and some insight on the company operation and strategy to the applicant.

At the end of an interview questions related to possible employment of the applicant are discussed – salary, perspectives, contents of the work, required additional training, etc.

For the purpose of recruitment of academic personnel a competition is announced. This process is implemented in compliance to the regulatory document of BAT (N25; N110).Personnel adaptation

It is very important for BAT to adapt new employees within the company as fast and efficient as possible, so that their knowledge and skills could be used as early as possible, because other employees have to spend their working time for the introduction of a new employee to the work.

Adaptation within the working environment begins with the following: familiarising with the relevant job description/ job duties (Appendix to the

employment contract);

276

provision of information on the company history, mission, goals, strategy, achievements, problems, personnel team and introduction to the particular place of work;

presenting the Manual of the relevant structural unit (all the valid regulatory documents of BAT);

introduction of the labour safety instructions (P13).Adaptation of new employees is directly related to the establishment of personal and

human links with the other employees of the relevant structural unit and the company in general.

Personnel education, improvement of qualification

For a company to be competitive and to develop, as well as to utilise the possibilities presented by the rapidly developing and changing technologies, systems and scientific innovations, as well as to ensure compliance to the requirements of the external regulations, permanent and considerable attentition is paid to further education and re-qualification of personnel.The directions of education of BAT employees are as follows:

studies – BAT study programs, or programs in other educational establishments, (BAT Personnel Study Crediting Terms V61);

courses – both within the company and by sending employees to courses arranged by other specialised organisations;

seminars and conferences (V77); business trips for the exchange of experience; provision of different types and levels of consultations; self-education – the funds of the Library, the reading-room, electronic

catalogues and data bases are available (V7; V51).

Personnel assessment

The system and procedure of assessment of personnel are defined in the company (BAT Regulatory document No. P17). It is important that the information gained in the assessment process is used for the interests of both the company and employees. The results of the assessment are utilised for the following: for the information needs to improve understanding: for the company management – to learn the employees’ opinion on the company, management, working relationship, climate at the place of work and communications; for the employees – provides a possibility to perform both one’s own and colleagues’ assessement on regular basis encouraging to improve the performance of work or to change something in it, as well as to receive assessment, and improves the understanding on what is expected from an employee and what should be done to improve one’s performance. for the review and detailing of the scope of duties and responsibility – for

promoting an employee to a higher position or diminishing the position, for delegating new duties, decrease of the scope of duties, formation of reserves;

for understanding the motivation of employees and improving the motivation – the obtained results are used for practical actions by improving and expanding the motivation system;

for identification of the necessity of the professional improvement and its promotion – to identify the professional qualification, traits of characters and skills of employees required for performance of one’s duties at a high professional level;

for the change management process.

277

Personnel promotion

The aim of the personnel promotion is to ensure professional human resources for the company, to limit leaving by employees, to increase motivation, and from the employees’ perspective – to improve career possibilities and improve oneself as a personality and professional expert. The promotion of employees is also one of the methods of motivating employees. Still, promotion of employees along “career path” is required not only for motivation of employees, although the motivation is the one helping to mobilize an employee for the fulfilment of his/ her official duties. Promotion is required also for the purpose of finding the most suitable position for an employee, utilising most experienced and talented employees for the relevant important position and maintaining employees in the company.

BAT employee promotion model includes the following: Direct promotion of employees, Transfer of employees, Further education of employees, Preparation of employees for management positions in future.

Transfer is used also in cases when it is necessary not to dismiss an employee who has been working in the company for long years as unsuitable for the previous position, but to find a position suitable for his/ her professional experience.Decrease of one’s position is applied as a penalty, however, taking into consideration the potential abilities of an employee (V4).

Personnel motivation

Motivation is a process, by which a company encourages and directs employees’ activities for the performance of a particular task and achievement of the goals set by the company by applying psychological, social and economic methods and means.

For the purpose of identification of the wishes and needs of BAT employees an employee survey is used (BAT Regulatory doc. No. P17). The information obtained in the survey is summarised and the results are notified to BAT personnel. The Personnel Department analyses the results of the survey and develops proposals for the improvement of the personnel policy. The results and proposals are reviewed by the company management.The issues of social character are solved by the following means:

Crediting policy – permanently employed employees are offered a possibility to receive an interest free loan in compliance to the Regulations (V28);

Crediting of studies – permanently employed employees are offered a possibility to receive a study credit for studies in the programs compliant to the professional duties and required for the qualification of employees or planned career within BAT. If an employee selects studies in a program implemented by BAT the studies in BAT are supported. If there is no such program in the offer by BAT also studies in other higher education establishments are supported (V61);

Health insurance – the company provides a possibility to receive health insurance with favourable terms. The years of work in the company and the salary level serve as the basic factors for determining the level of co-funding in each individual case. (V99);

40% discount for study fee - permanently employed employees, who have worked in the company for more than three years, are offered a possibility to recommend one applicant or student for studies in BAT every five years. A person with such a recommendation is entitled to 40% discount of the study fee (V62);

Material support – in case of a funeral and other extraordinary cases;

278

gifts (money) – on anniversaries (on n0 and n5 anniversaries), on marriage, on a childbirth and on national holidays (Ordinance No. 1086).

For the purpose of forming a solid and loyal team events for employees are being arranged (P12):

a Christmas Party - also spouses of employees are invited, during the party in a feast atmosphere many new acquaintances are gained, also the sense of belonging to the company by family members is promoted;

Midsummer/ completion of a study year party – an external event outside the premises of BAT. It is organised in compliance to the Midsummer traditions. It is also the venue where the company management expresses thanks to employees for the work and presents gifts to the employees, who have achieved the highest evaluations in the employees’ surveys.

Sports event – the event is organised based upon the results of an employees’ survey if 50% of the permanently employed employees are willing to participate there;

The celebration of the beginning of a new study year – in an official event the management reports the results of enrolment and the nearest plans.

Strategy seminar – in the seminar the strengths and weaknesses of the company are analysed, the threats and opportunities are reviewed, the operational goals are reviewed and the operation plans are detailed. Also the work tasks are distributed among all the structural units.

The company has its own sports premises, where employees have a possibility to play basketball, volleyball, to go for aerobics and to relax in sauna after sports (V67; V68). In compliance to the company development and economic results BAT provides stable income and social guarantees to its employees.Besides the above, BAT uses also the following models of motivation:

Mutual relationship model – managers motivate their employees by presenting diplomas of acknowledgement to the best employees and thus certifying their special role and value for the company operation;

Personal resource model – persons are motivated to perform well if they gain satisfaction from it, therefore more responsibility over adoption of resolutions and completion of tasks is granted to employees. They are also motivated by offering flexible work hours and additional holidays. BAT employees can work at their full capacity because they can realize themselves

in their work, they can feel comfortable both physically and psychologically, they can feel as needed, useful and appreciated, they can visualise their personal growth and career development possibilities.
