Africa-Press – Eswatini. <\/strong><\/span>\u201cCall us on 2404 8119 to cross-check the tertiary institution you are applying in.\u201d<\/b><\/p>\n

This clear and concise message was sent out to emaSwati parents and applicants by the Eswatini Higher Education Council (ESHEC) yesterday- while warning emaSwati on non-accredited tertiary institutions.<\/p>\n

Worth noting is that the months of January and February are known to be a hive of activity with regards to applying and registering in tertiary institutions in Eswatini. After Form V results are released in February, the school leavers start applying to tertiary institutions of their choice and this is why ESHEC has started this awareness campaign.<\/p>\n

Sending out the warning this morning was ESHEC\u2019s Communications Officer Mihla Khumalo, who said it was important for parents and applicants to verify the colleges they were applying to.<\/p>\n

Khumalo said applicants and their parents tended to be desperate and not crosscheck if the tertiary institution they were applying to was accredited or not.<\/p>\n

The ESHEC Communications Officer further said emaSwati should not be scared to contact them to verify an institution they were applying to.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur line 2404 8119<\/b> is open to the public- so they can verify if an institution they are applying in is accredited. Being accredited means that institution had reached the expected standards and their certificates are internationally recognised,\u201d explained Khumalo.<\/p>\n

Khumalo further explained that an entity might be accredited but have courses that are not.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen we accredit we also scrutinize the courses. This means that the public can also detail which courses they have applied for so we can assess holistically,\u201d said Khumalo.<\/p>\n
