| Description | The article deals with a problem which is specific for Slovak and Czech Republic. The Slovak universities are present via their branches or in cooperation with Czech institutions in the Czech Republic where they offer the university degree education under the Slovak law. The question is whether such activity is permissible under both the EU and Czech law. Another question is whether Slovak diplomas acquired by Czech students studying in the Czech Republic on institutions approved under the Slovak law are equal to Czech diplomas and as such shall be recognized under EU directive on the recognition of professional qualifications. The author analyses the regulation of provision services and freedom of establishment and relevant case law of the Court of Justice and takes the view that EU law generally does not exclude the possibility to restrict the provision of such foreign education in the Czech Republic under the Czech law. As far as the recognition of professional qualifications is concerned, the author concludes, that the directive shall be interpreted according to its text and aim meaning, that it can applied only on situations where genuine and sufficient link between the law according to which the university is entitled to provide the education and real place of education exists. |
