Gov�t to transfer students from unaccredited tertiary institutions

Madigele’s comments follow recent protests by students at Botho University  and Ba Isago University against unaccredited courses offered by the institutions. Last year,  New Era University College students took to the public complaining about unaccredited courses.

A large number of students are presently roaming the streets without jobs, after being sponsored for and qualifying under unaccredited courses that employers do not recognise, the protesting learners said. In an interview with Mmegi, Madigele said government had since passed new regulations and given institutions six months notice to comply, failing which stringent measures will be imposed.
