Benefits of Accreditation
By becoming an accredited centre, a college benefits from:

These manuals, each around 200/300 pages per subject, can be used by students studying any ABE programme; where a particular unit is common to the BM programme eg Introduction to Business. These are valuable study materials, as in many parts of the world textbooks are expensive and often difficult to obtain. You can order these by downloading a form from the Tuition Resources section of Qualifications area of this website
