The number of people and prospective students that are misinformed about the accreditation of schools in Benin Republic is alarming.
Accreditation of Benin Republic universities is not based on the school but on the COURSES offered.
There are a good number of universities in Benin Republic, all of which are accredited to offer Certain courses; NOT all courses.
They need to understand that universities in Benin Republic are all accredited to offer mostly management, some social science, and Engineering courses. However, when it comes to Medical courses like Nursing, Pharmacy, Medical Laboratory Science and also courses like Law; Not all schools are accredited to offer them.
Though not all English private universities are directly accredited to offer courses like Pharmacy, Law, Nursing…; they offer these courses based on affiliation or a formal collaborative agreement with schools in Togo, Cameroon, Niger, and some other West African countries. This implies that students will be awarded certificates from the main affiliated Universities in these countries and not from their school in Benin Republic.
We should keep in mind that an informed minority is always more powerful than an ignorant majority.
Students shouldn’t be focused on the accreditation of a school but rather on the “Accreditation of their desired course in that school”.
