Testimonials
Brief History
MANCOSA is a private higher education institution registered in terms of the Higher Education Act (Act 101 of 1997 as amended). It was established in 1995 as a post-apartheid empowerment institution offering affordable and accessible management education primarily to persons previously denied access to postgraduate education.
During the past 25 years, MANCOSA has developed a large footprint across the Southern African Development Community and has accumulated extensive experience in meeting the educational needs of a wide range of students through the delivery of high-quality programmes through traditional distance learning.
Notwithstanding the many successes over the last two decades MANCOSA has been mindful of the various trends in higher education namely, the changing landscape of education, the way education is designed and presented, the way learning takes place, the role of the employer in signalling skills and attributes required for a changing world of work, the way education is quality managed, the impact of emerging and cost effective technology on education and the increasing discernment of students.
As an institution which constantly seeks to improve its education offering and to remain relevant MANCOSA has arranged meetings, brainstorming sessions, and focus groups with multiple stakeholders to examine its education impact, its teaching, learning and assessment strategy, feedback from students and evaluation of their experience, and a review of its operations.
