Vision A vibrant, equitable and sustainable African university, committed to teaching and research excellence at the service of its students, scholars and the wider community. Mission To provide high quality education of international standards contributing to the advancement of knowledge that is socially and ethically relevant and applying technological and socio-economic development of our nation and the wider world. Values Integrity - To respect and affirm… [+] the dignity, equality, freedom and rich cultural diversity of all human beings as the basis for peace and social justice, the pursuit of truth, intellectual honesty, and openness to ideas. Excellence - To be recognised as an international centre for excellence that is both rooted in its environment and sensitive to the challenges of human progress, and to foster a culture of teaching and learning and research excellence in the University as a basic minimum requirement for living up to the claim of being a site of knowledge generation. Innovation - To focus on the challenges presented by new information technologies, information management systems and processes, and opportunities for innovation. And to do so in an enterprising way that benefits the University and humanity. Ethics - The attainment of the highest professional and ethical standards in teaching, learning, research, community engagement and corporate governance. Strategic Objectives Excellence in teaching and learning, research and community engagement; This strategic objective focuses on the broad social vision which is required to sustain the University as an international centre for excellence that is both rooted in its environment and sensitive to the challenges of human progress; the imperative to revive a culture of teaching and learning and research excellence in the University as a basic minimum requirement for living up to the claim of being a site of knowledge generation and in order to be able to compare with similar institutions elsewhere in the world; and the fundamental mission of the contemporary African university and the inter-connection between that mission and broad-ranging expectations of the social responsibilities of the University to the communities it serves. It also focuses on accessing of new technologies that could facilitate teaching and learning, and research. Improve the Student Experience: This strategic objective has to do with managing the experience of student life at the University, so that critical, engaged citizens and appropriately skilled graduates leave the University of Fort Hare. It focuses on the administrative, residential, sporting, cultural and social support systems for students. Build a Service Culture: This objective is designed to ensure that the ethical principles of service and ethos of service excellence permeate the University culture, for students, staff and stakeholders; as well as improved efficiencies in administrative and management systems that support the primary processes. Optimise the Multi- Campus model: This objective introduces the ‘Planets in Alignment’ model as the optimal model for our multi-campus university; and describes how we intend to leverage the relative strengths and strategic niches of each of our three campuses, while ensuring equivalence of status and coordination across the geographic space. Harness Technology Effectively: This objective focuses on the challenges presented by new information technologies in terms of the investments that need to be made, information management systems and processes, and opportunities for innovation. Develop Human Resources: This objective is about refreshing – or possibly re-negotiating – the psychological and developmental contract with our staff. We will also have to revisit our models of management and leadership, and significantly improve our management capacity and capability. Managers will need to take responsibility for managing and supporting staff to make the transition to a new balance of activities, considering new models of teaching and learning, and planning staffing needs to deliver that model. We also need to inculcate a firm, but compassionate culture of individual and collective accountability; and reinforce staff expectations about being managed in line with this agenda. Achieve financial viability and sustainability: This enabler is concerned with the development of a sustainable funding base for the University; and with ensuring that the size and shape of the University is both viable and supports its strategic goals. In summary, the University will focus on transformation in higher education, good governance and accountability, and its social responsibility function in the coming period. It will also emphasise technological development and the establishment of a sustainable funding base. Charter of Ethical Principles and Values Preamble: ‘In lumine tuo vide bimus lumen’ – ‘In Thy light we see light’ The University of Fort Hare recognizes that any institution or community is ultimately governed by norms, values and belief systems that reflect its distinctive identity, traditions and orientation. The University believes that knowledge is a positive force only if integrated with values and that it should provide a nurturing context of strong ethical norms and principles. In the absence of such values, knowledge could be a destructive force. This Charter therefore presents the crucial value-framework that defines the ethos of the University of Fort Hare. It guides the University’s Vision, Mission, Corporate Goals and Strategic Objectives. It serves as a reference point for all its academic and administrative policies, programmes and procedures and it binds the entire university community by shared ethical principles and values. The Charter is relevant to our rights and responsibilities, as Fort Harians, in relation to each other, the wider society and the environment. Ultimately, it seeks to inspire all people to live with nobility, dignity and an active conscience. The University of Fort Hare will always be the crucible where many of the critical ideas of South Africa’s democracy, liberation, reconciliation and forgiveness germinated, developed and strengthened and eventually reverberated throughout the country, the continent of Africa and around the globe. The Charter therefore naturally resonates with the principles and values that underlie the Freedom Charter, the South African Constitution and the Bill of Rights. The Fort Hare Charter has grown out of an inclusive developmental process that involved the entire university community. It offers to all its members the ethical principles and values listed below, in order to guide us on our journey of discovery, exploration and realization of our intellectual and unique human potentialities. Without such ethical guidelines all teaching, learning, research and community service are of little value. The University of Fort Hare Community is: Inspired by the heritage of the University and the contribution it has made to leadership, liberation and service to humanity; Accepting that the purposes of education include the realization of our humanity as well as our responsibility to self, family and community; Recognizing that in the pursuit of truth and knowledge, the University, as an institution of higher learning, shall maintain in all that it does an unwavering focus on excellence; Affirming that a crucial role of education is to instil in students respect, tolerance and social responsibility in an environment of academic freedom, dialogue, friendship and understanding. The University of Fort Hare Community hereby accepts this Charter and commits itself to living by and promoting the principles and values listed below: Operational Principles To ensure that the universal values of justice, integrity, discipline, love, kindness, non-injury and concern for the wellbeing of others shall serve as a source of our thought, speech and action. To respect and affirm the dignity, equality, freedom and rich cultural diversity of all human beings as the basis for peace and social justice. To commit ourselves to the pursuit of truth, intellectual honesty, openness to ideas and excellence through the attainment of the highest professional and ethical standards in teaching, learning, research and community service. To endorse and encourage the endeavour for academic success as being critically linked with the striving towards an ever-deepening expression of our humanity. To uphold and honour the dignity of the University, to preserve its heritage, spirit and assets and to observe its statute, rules and regulations as well as the laws of the country. To encourage an orientation of imaginative, collaborative, problem-solving and entrepreneurial thinking in addressing the challenges that we face. As a staff member, to be a responsible, caring mentor in all our dealings with students and with each other. To not discriminate, directly or indirectly, on the grounds of birth, race, colour, nationality, ethnic or social origin, gender, age, illness or disability, language, culture, political or other opinion, religion, conscience, belief, marital status, pregnancy or sexual orientation. To be ever conscious of the need to develop a responsible relationship with the earth and to understand our critical role to protect and preserve it for future generations. To undertake teaching and research that will responsibly harness the benefits of all the sciences for the well-being of humanity, being conscious of the harm inherent in the irresponsible use of knowledge.

We strive for this to be reflective in all areas of our institution. As an organisation, we promote inclusivity and access to higher learning.

We adopt a business approach in our curriculum and classrooms to prepare graduates for both the expected opportunities and challenges in the working world. Continued learning Access to further learning is high on our priority list and we are proud that more than two thirds of our students who enter into our Higher Certificate programmes go on to be accepted into qualifications at either Inscape or other accredited and registered higher education institutions. Accreditations Inscape is registered with the Department of Higher Education and Training (DHET) as a private higher education institution.

Vibrant, multicultural and dynamic, the University of Johannesburg (UJ) shares the pace and energy of cosmopolitan Johannesburg, the city whose name it carries. Proudly South African, the university is alive down to its African roots, and well-prepared for its role in actualising the potential that higher education holds for the continent’s development. The phenomenal success story of the University is one that has surprised critics and won over sceptics. Being an institution t… [+] hat prides itself in its accessible excellence, after only 11 years UJ has established itself as an institution of global excellence and world-class stature. In its first five years of existence, UJ doubled its accredited research output and increased its number of distinguished South African Research Chairs from none to seven. This remarkable achievement was reached well ahead of the target set for 2015. The 2010 research outcome was the result of UJ’s desire, during the initial period, to establish UJ as a thoroughly research-focused university. UJ is the first and only African university admitted to the highly respected consortium of 28 research-intensive universities in the world, Universitas 21 – an important endorsement of the growing international stature of UJ. UJ boasts world-class, internationally recognised academic programmes based on curricula informed by cutting-edge developments in both undergraduate and postgraduate education. UJ’s programmes, within its nine faculties, are designed to prepare students for the world of work and for global citizenship. The University has four campuses, namely the Auckland Park Bunting Road Campus; the Auckland Park Kingsway Campus; the Doornfontein Campus; and the Soweto Campus. Based on the choices of UJ’s Orange Carpet First-Year Students – those with an APS score equal to and greater than 40 points – the flagship programmes include: Accounting; Electrical and Electronic/ Mechanical/ Civil/ Mining Engineering; LLB/ BA Law/ BCom Law; Mathematics/ Applied Mathematics; IT/ Computer Sciences; Human Physiology; Optometry; Finance; Psychology; and Teacher Education. In order to make UJ’s teaching, research and innovation goals a reality, UJ has, over the past eight years, invested in excess of R2 billion into the upgrading and expansion of living and learning facilities on all of its campuses and into creating a safe and secure, world-class learning and research environment for both staff and students. UJ also introduced handheld devices (a tablet or laptop) into first-year classrooms in 2014, in a bid to connect these young minds with the world of e-knowledge that they are growing into, and to transform their ability to contribute and compete. UJ’s graduate success rate now stands at 83,4% and the overall annual graduate output is in excess of 11,400 students. The University’s First Year Experience Programme (FYE), an initiative offering academic skills reinforcement with an accent on students mentoring fellow students, is one of the support programmes that help ease the school-to-university transition. Almost 1,300 student tutors, selected from third-year level and up, act as an interface between students and teaching staff. UJ also introduced academic advisors in University residences and approved off-campus accommodation facilities. Under UJ’s Academic Excellence Programme, 250 student advisors are serving 2,000 first-year students in 25 residences. Notable, too, is that UJ, with more than 49,500 students; 2,300 international students; 6,700 postgraduates and renowned academic staff, is an institution with an admirable graduation rate. UJ is home to 133 rated researchers, six of whom are A-rated, and has seven National Research Foundation Chairs. Additionally, it produces the largest number of black accountants of all accredited residential universities in the country. While UJ pursues global excellence and stature, the University envisages being nationally responsive in a manner that only UJ can. In this regard, among South Africa’s six leading universities, only UJ successfully provides access to almost 2,000 first-year students who come from the poorest communities, providing them, where needed, with top-up NSFAS funding, bursaries and two healthy meals a day. In the next ten years, UJ has set six strategic goals, namely: ​Global Excellence in Research and Innovation. Global Excellence in Teaching and Learning. An International Profile Fit for Global Excellence and Stature.​ An Outstanding Student Experience. Active Global Reputation Management, and An Institution and People Fit for Global Excellence and Stature.​ Vision An international University of choice, anchored in Africa, dynamically shaping the future. Mission Inspiring its community to transform and serve humanity through innovation and the collaborative pursuit of knowledge. ​Values IMAGINATION CONVERSATION REGENERATION ETHICAL FOUNDATION Shaping the future Thinking independently Developing a cosmopolitan identity Exhibiting ambition and drive Adopting entrepreneurial approaches Learning together from our diversity Making wise decisions collectively Engaging meaningfully with one another Displaying mutual respect Leading consultatively Developing sustainably through creative contribution Introspecting for renewal Innovating for the common good Making positive change Taking advantage of overlooked opportunities Treasuring academic freedom Seeking balance in the pursuit of knowledge Facing challenges with courage and earning trust Acting responsibly by being fair, consistent and transparent Participating in and helping the community (Ubuntu)*​ *Ubuntu is the capacity to express compassion, justice, reciprocity, dignity, harmony and humanity in the interests of building, maintaining and strengthening the community. Ubuntu speaks to our inter-connectedness, our common humanity and the responsibility to each that flows from our connection. [-]

George Whitefield College is named after the great English evangelist and preacher of the 18th century evangelical revival. It was his passion for evangelism and strong Bible-based theological preaching that the GWC founders desired to honour in naming the College after him. The College was founded in 1989, the product of the vision of Bishops Dudley Foord and Joe Bell, successive Presiding Bishops of the Church of England in Southern Africa. Their vision was for a college… [+] that would ground people thoroughly in God’s word, that they might be faithful and impassioned stewards of its message. Our Purpose GWC stands under the authority of Holy Scripture as God’s infallible revelation of himself to human beings, culminating in his becoming a man in Jesus Christ. Our programme therefore aims to deepen the students’ understanding of the total message of the Bible, to develop their capacity to relate to the many complex situations of modern life, and to train them to minister the Biblical message effectively to the needy world. This is accomplished by educating people in the principles of Christian knowledge and related fields; and by training people for Christian life and ministry with an emphasis on the teaching the Word of God. Vision That Africa be filled with preachers and teachers who deeply love the Lord Jesus and who have a profound understanding of Scripture, in order that Africa may increase its share in the Kingdom of God. Mission To shape minds via a classical theological education, nurture hearts devoted to service and train voices to effectively communicate the word of Christ. Our Ethos GWC Is A Community Of Disciples Of Jesus We can no longer follow our master on the road as his first disciples did, but we have his teachings and his life story and we see ourselves as “apprentices” serving him as we are able to do now, and equipping ourselves to serve him better in the future. GWC Is About Ministry And Mission We believe that theology is about Christian living, worship, ministry and mission. So there is a focus on ministry, mission, evangelism and church planting. GWC Seeks To Unite Academic Learning With Practical Ministry All our students are engaged in ministry in churches while they are at the college. GWC Is Big On Biblical Theology We believe the Old and New Testaments are one developing revelation of God to humankind. We want to grasp the big picture: to see how the Old and New Testaments fit together. Our Core Beliefs We believe that God has revealed himself and his plan for the human race through the prophetic writings of the Old and New Testaments and ultimately by becoming a man in the person of Jesus Christ. At the heart of this plan is God’s establishment of Jesus Christ as Lord and King of his Universe through his sin-bearing death and death-defeating resurrection. Jesus commanded that this be communicated to people of all nations that they might believe and be saved before his coming again to rule visibly, gloriously and forever. Salvation is by Christ’s grace alone, and is received by faith alone. Believers become members of Christ (“in Christ”) and this determines their fundamental corporate identity, transcending all differences of nationality, race, gender and class. As Christians we are one body in Christ, members of his Church and individually children of God and brothers and sisters to each other. As an evangelical Anglican college we are in essential agreement with the three great creeds, the Thirty Nine Articles of Religion, the Lausanne Covenant and the GAFCON Declaration. We accept the Book of Common Prayer of 1662 and the Ordinal as our standard of worship and church order. [-]

The Academic Project includes rigorous academic entrance qualifications for first-time students, elevated standards for the professoriate, the transformation of undergraduate curricula, the recruitment of world-class professors, and the identification and promotion of next-generation professors. Human Project The UFS remains conscious, however, of its responsibility to turn ideas into action, to make research count in the lives of ordinary people, and to develop a spirit of service through scholarship among our students. Through our Human Project, the UFS seeks to connect the teaching and research of the university to the improvement of human lives. Our scholarship of service, through a myriad projects and initiatives, makes the vital connections between campus and communities through the production and dissemination of knowledge. In these pursuits, the university makes human reconciliation one of the foundations of its mission.

MANCOSA has 100% black ownership, i.e. it is owned entirely by previously disadvantaged individuals in the… [+] South African context. In 2002, MANCOSA received accreditation for its programmes from the Higher Education Quality Committee (HEQC), the quality committee of the Council on Higher Education (CHE). MANCOSA is a leading provider of management programmes through supported distance learning in Southern Africa. It has in excess of 10 000 students currently enrolled on its programmes. MANCOSA has extensive experience in working with a wide range of students over the past 20 years in delivering high quality management and education programmes offered locally and internationally. The Master of Business Administration (MBA) degree programme has been offered since 1995. Between 1995 and 2000 MANCOSA provided management programmes in association with the Buckinghamshire Chilterns University College (BCUC), a College of the University of Brunel in the United Kingdom. During this 5-year period, MANCOSA successfully delivered tuition support to over 860 students enrolled on the Buckinghamshire Chilterns University College management programmes. At that time, MANCOSA was successfully quality assured by the Quality Assurance Agency for Higher Education of the United Kingdom (QAA). MANCOSA’s partnership with BCUC in offering management programmes and the MBA provided an international perspective to students in the Southern African region, whilst maintaining a strong local and regional focus. From the year 2000, MANCOSA discontinued offering BCUC qualifications and started to award its own qualifications which were registered and accredited in South Africa. In delivering its range of management education programmes to a diverse body of students from both the public and private sectors, MANCOSA has considerably developed its infrastructural, academic and intellectual capacities. Drawn from commerce, industry and academia, the programmes have access to a large group of high quality academics, supervisors and mentors in management and leadership. During October 2014, MANCOSA formally opened its Graduate School of Business [GSB] in Durban. The vision behind establishing the Mancosa [GSB] was the creation of a niche campus focusing exclusively on postgraduate education in business management with emphasis on the promotion of international collaborative higher education; international study tours; executive education and research. In addition to international benchmarking activities, the graduate school of business campus was envisaged to promote programmes relevant to postgraduate business education, hence the creation of the Mancosa [GSB]. The intention is to allow for a differentiated student learning experience between postgraduate and undergraduate education and the Mancosa [GSB] will enable this to happen. Many postgraduate students hold senior positions in industry and a differentiated learning experience through the Mancosa [GSB] is appropriate. The following additional factors provide an overview of MANCOSA’s operations: During 2014 MANCOSA had over 10 000 enrolled students from 10 South African Development Community (SADC) countries and a number of students from other countries across the globe, studying its programmes; There is an existing network of support centres, centrally located, in most provinces of South Africa that are currently being used for sessions with students. Some of these centres are managed through formal partnership agreements with other public and private higher education institutions; MANCOSA has qualified full-time and part-time lecturers, supervisors and resource persons to provide educational support; These resource persons also provide students with academic support and pastoral care throughout their academic career; and The MANCOSA head office, based in central Durban, has a large complement of full-time academic, administrative and student support staff. It also has a well-resourced and modern infrastructure, training facilities, library and ICT infrastructure and equipment to complement its high quality programmes and executive education programmes. As a leading provider of management programmes through supported distance education, MANCOSA has considerable expertise in the design and development of high quality and relevant study materials. It has developed appropriate teaching and learning strategies, particularly suited for transferring knowledge and skills to mature students, many of whom are in full-time employment. Through its active research focus, MANCOSA remains at the cutting-edge of the latest management and leadership training trends. The management and staff of MANCOSA are supportive of and actively involved in both public and private initiatives to improve the South African and continental higher education sector. [-]

​​​​​​​​Vega was founded in 1999 in recognition of the shifting global focus towards Brand Leadership and Management and the increasing demand for creative and innovative​ brand thinkers. The accredited Independent Institute of Education, Degrees, Honours and Masters programmes are well known and respected by the brand, marketing and communications industries. Vega School, an educational brand of the Independent Institute of Education, believes that brands are the world’s g… [+] reatest assets for meaningful change. Vega therefore aims to graduate a new breed of thinker by delivering fully accredited Certificates, Baccalaureates, Honours and Masters programmes in brand building and creative communication. Vega’s mantra - wisdomwithmagic - communicates its belief in creative strategic thinking. An IIE Vega graduate is an explorer who is smart, colourful and passionate, but generally dissatisfied with the status quo because he/she knows that brands, businesses, economies and societies can be healthier and do better for people. The IIE graduates successfully contribute to society in diverse corporate and social arenas. About Vega​ ​Vega is the name of the brightest star in the celestial constellation of Lyra. Due to its intense luminescence and the crucial role it plays in maritime navigation, Vega has been described by astrophysicist Austin F. Gulliver as "the next most important star in the sky after the Sun". Founded in 1998 by a breakaway group of pioneers, mavericks and innovators, Vega School was born in response to the urgent need for a paradigm shift away from conventional marketing communications. The traditional approaches to brand-building, marketing and advertising had been exhausted and were rapidly reaching their sell-by date. A new school of thought was called for and Vega answered that call. The belief that the brand is born to lead is the cornerstone of the Vega philosophy. In the words of Vega founder Gordon Cook, "a brand delivers particular and unique meaning in order to add value and connect with people." In other words, a brand is not merely the name of a product but the manifestation of an identity and, more importantly, a purpose: think of brands such as Apple, Greenpeace and Google and you quickly realise that brands are far more than letters and logos but powerful cultural forces shaping the world as we know it. Our Teaching P​​hilosophy The core pedagogic principle embraced by Vega is reflected in our very name. Since Vega is the navigational star, the concept of navigation is central to Vega’s unique teaching methodology. Vega lecturers are navigators: we are driven by the ethos of pro-active, expert guidance rather than that of merely imparting information that is passively absorbed. Central to the navigational process is the dialogue established between navigator and student. The rigorous examination, review and critical analysis of ideas allows for the continual evolution of concepts into final crafting to produce the most refined and meaningful results possible. Perhaps the most important cornerstone of the Vega teaching philosophy is that enshrined in our mantra wisdomwithmagic. Expressed in this dictum is the fundamentally synergistic nature of the relationships between creativity and strategy; inspiration and innovation; idea and deed. Our Val​u​​​es We believe in creativity with strategic intent We believe in creative application of borderless knowledge Our studio is the human imagination and we are here to have crayon-bright fun We strive to always be socially and culturally relevant We believe in always being warmly and immediately human because this gives the space for wisdomwithmagic to surface We strive to be at the leading edge in innovation We link business to profit by adding value to the lives of people​​​​​​ [-]

Being able to do the job entails a lot more than controlling an aeroplane correctly and accurately. It includes effective and adaptable procedures, an applied operational knowledge, good and confident command skills. All these are taught and then practised through planned exposure to various conditions and situations.

We’re Red and we’re Yellow. Our secret formula: Logic and Magic. It’s a cunning mix of sane and silly, physics and fantasy, vitamins and bubble gum. From the start, we got that balance right. Our fingers are firmly on the pulse of the advertising and marketing industry, so we stay connected to what’s happening. We believe that positive encouragement and an atmosphere of competitive fun is the best way to learn. And we know this for sure: that universe-conquering confide… [+] nce comes from pushing yourself and discovering just how clever you really are, and how ridiculously high you can jump. WHY WE SET THE BAR We believe our drive and our energy stand out from the rest. What’s that you’re asking? How does one measure drive and energy? Ask our accomplished alumni – honestly, that was pride, not snark. We’re dynamic, constantly growing and very much in tune with the advertising and marketing industry’s needs. We attribute this to our close relationship with the industry, which gives us access to the latest trends and research, and highlights the skills and expertise that will soon be in demand. We are an independent business that distils practically applicable knowledge and shares it with an active learning community that crosses geographic, cultural and technological boundaries to produce eager, ambitious minds who drive the industry forward. Brave curious minds In 2013, our school collided with Quirk Education to form a practical academic institution that we believe will serve to future-proof our students. This new entity combines tremendous experience in marketing’s academic space with digital skills and online training expertise. Relevant and practical content can thus be delivered through the methodology best suited to our students – online, contact or a hybrid of both. [-]

Leadership for Sustainability Welcome to the South African business school that takes sustainability issues seriously. Thank you for visiting our website. We trust that you will find interest in what we do in the business education arena, as well as in how we do it. Sustainability embodies two main ideas. Firstly there is the idea of “business continuity” and organizational longevity, and secondly, there is the idea of “sustainable development”. Both ideas are tied up… [+] with the concern of “meeting the needs of the present generation without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs”. In all its courses, both short courses and the MBA, Rhodes Business School emphasises the balance which needs to be placed on the social, environmental and economic performance of organizations which is essential to their successful long term performance. As a result of the concerns with global warming, for example, there is a risk that public policies and social movements will speed up the demands for companies and other organizations to operate in a more sustainable way. All organizations need to understand these imperatives, as well as to be empowered to respond practically and appropriately. The Rhodes Business School offerings aim to do this.
