Albanian College  was authorized to provide the IB Middle Years Programme (MYP) in May 2017. The International Baccalaureate Organization (IBO) adopted the MYP in 1994 for students aged 11-16 specifically to support the IBO’s aim of developing internationally minded people who by recognizing their common humanity and shared guardianship of the planet, help to create a better and more peaceful world. Informed by these values, the IB MYP supports the overall characteristics of an IB education, which: 

• Focus on learners 
• Develops effective approaches to teaching and learning 
• Works within global contexts 
• Explores significant content.

The MYP was revised in September 2014 to provide a more rigorous and highly flexible framework that incorporates the Learner Profile, Approaches to Learning, Service as Action and the Personal Project, Subject Areas, and International-Mindedness, as reflected in the MYP Programme Model above.
