BOCODOL to evolve into university

Government in 2012 had announced that the distance learning college would transform into the Botswana Open University (BOU). However, the enabling law, governing the establishment of universities and colleges, was never produced reportedly due to resistance from some institutions.

“We have since decided to review the act that established BOU as a college and draft a bill establishing it as a university.  It will, however, not reach Parliament during the current session.
