Our programmes are accredited by the renowned Council of Higher Education (CHE), which ensures that our curriculum, faculty and resources meet the rigorous criteria set forth by the industry.

Our relentless pursuit of excellence has been recognised by associations to which we are affiliated; such as the South African Business Schools Association (SABSA) as well as the Association of African Business School (AABS).

These affiliations not only enrich their academic journey but also open doors to a myriad of opportunities for our students and alumni and also ensure that our curriculum remains reflects best practices in academia.

Moreover, we understand the importance of bridging the gap between academia and industry. Our affiliations with prominent professional associations facilitate meaningful collaborations with industry partners. By nurturing these industry connections, we ensure that our graduates are not only academically proficient but also equipped with experiences that set them apart in the job market.
