LIUTEBM-SOIP and SSM Collaboration

Swiss School of Management is one of the best, highly ranked and fully accredited Business Schools and degree-granting HEI, which has institutional and program accreditation from both Europe and the USA. LIUTEBM University, Lusaka is one of the oldest and fully Accredited Universities of Zambia and the LIUTEBM School of International Programs - LIUTEBM SOIP  is a well-known, highly recognised and trusted Online Educational Platform & facilitators in the African region. Because many African students are unable to pursue their dreams of overseas education, particularly from Europe and America, the LIUTEBM SOIP and SSM collaborated to facilitate SSM's MBA, DBA and PhD Programs to Zambians and to other African region students at an economical, subsidised and affordable fee plan through the LIUTEBM School of International Programs in addition to the other LIUTEBM University Programs. HEA-Zambia has permitted LIUTEBM University to facilitate enrolment in the SSM's fully online Programs.
