Recognition in Zambia
All ABE’s 120 credit Diplomas have been accredited by the Zambia Qualifications Authority (ZAQA) and are on the ZAQA framework. This means employers and universities in Zambia can confirm the level and depth of learning in a local context. The accreditation is subject to strict entry criteria.
ABE is well established in Zambia and, in addition to ZAQA, their qualifications are officially recognised by the Zambia Institute of Marketing (ZIM), Zambia Institute of Chartered Accountants (ZICA) and the Zambia Institute of Human Resource Management (ZIHRM).
ABE’s internationally recognised qualifications give students in Zambia the skills to build an outstanding business career. They also provide a fast and affordable route to a Bachelor’s Degree.
In addition, the programme helps develop an entrepreneurial mindset among students by equipping them with practical business knowledge, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills. Through the study of real business environments and management practices, students learn how to identify opportunities, develop innovative ideas, and manage business challenges effectively. This prepares graduates not only to seek employment but also to become job creators who can start and manage their own successful enterprises.
