ANA reports that the Bachelor of Laws (LLB) programme at North West University (NWU) has finally received full accreditation.
In 2017, the Council on Higher Education, which is responsible for quality assurance, issued notices of withdrawal of accreditation to the universities of Limpopo and Zululand, while the accreditation of Walter Sisulu University was withdrawn. NWU was one of 10 universities whose programme was hanging in the balance. This came after the council conducted a national review of the LLB programmes at 17 institutions in 2015 and 2016. The NWU submitted its progress report to the council in October. NWU vice-chancellor Dan Kgwadi indicated: “We had a dedicated team addressing the identified shortcomings, and all along I was confident that NWU will, through addressing the issues identified, ensure that we deliver an even better LLB degree, not only to the benefit of our students, but also that of the country.”
