Valletta Higher Education Institute is licensed by the Malta Further and Higher Education Authority (MFHEA) as a Higher Education Institution with Licence No: 2016-020.
The MFHEA deems this certificate to be at Level 6 (180 ECTS) of the Malta Qualifications Framework and the European Qualifications Framework for Lifelong Learning.

VHEI comes from the experience of FCM, that connects Italian and foreign professionals who own twenty-year experience in the field of videgames, animation, comics and cinema illustration. It aims to pursue and promote the research, study and spread of the culture of entertainment.

The Institute project is in collaboration with IUDAV . Thanks to this partnership, we offer a Bachelor’s Degree [Honour] in Digital Arts –  Animation and Video Games through a highly professional study programme and a skilled teaching staff.
The teaching staff is a fundamental part of this project and it is composed of cultural and academic professionals who possess competence and knowledge of art, communication and techniques.
Valletta Higher Education Institute is supported by national and international entertainment enterprises that grant highly formative internships. There is, therefore, a sure continuity between the educational path and the integration in the labour market and besides in a sector that does not know crisis and has a positive trend.
