Tertiary education fund to be outsourced

A single or consortium of private sector suppliers will be identified for the job by June this year, Marcos Maedza, director of the Department of Tertiary Education Financing told Mmegi on Friday.

The tertiary education fund has made higher education accessible for hundreds of thousands of Batswana students who have been sponsored to study both within the country's tertiary institutions and in countries such as the United States of America, Australia, the United Kingdom, Malaysia and South Africa.
