I chose ABE because it is recognised worldwide and growing in recognition in Guyana. It was affordable for me while I was unemployed, and has continued to allow me flexibility so I can take units while I’m working. Should I decide to pursue a degree programme in the future, ABE also has a top-up programme that allows for an easier transition to a leading UK university or a local one.

ABE is widely accepted by employers because the courses are very much related to any business working environment... More people are applying to do ABE courses because of the reviews and recommendations of previous students.
