The Vienna Business School offers a range of courses from commercial academies and commercial schools to advanced courses and colleges.

history

The Handelsakademie Wien was founded in 1857 as the first German-speaking business academy in Austria; in the following year, lessons began with five teachers and 59 students.

After 1952, all Viennese commercial academies were incorporated into the newly founded fund of the Viennese merchants' union and were given new names: the commercial academy was renamed HAK I, the new commercial academy in HAK II, and the Vienna commercial academy for girls in HAK III. Further business academies and business schools followed.

The business academies have been operating under the name Vienna Business School since 1997.
