Local accreditation
GIBS CSP, as a unit of GIBS and the business school of the University of Pretoria has four formal academic programmes accredited by the South African Qualifications Authority. These are:
GIBS CSP therefore has the ability to design a programme from its inception (full customisation) or to use the curriculum from one of the above academic programmes and customise the content delivered to suit a partner company’s learning objectives. It is essential though that the academic rigour of the accredited programme is maintained with non-negotiable elements being the assessment plan, required face-to-face contact time and the validated attainment of programme outcomes.
