EWN reports that Higher Education Minister Blade Nzimande has warned of a spike in the number of fake colleges offering so-called honours and doctoral degrees.
He raised the alarm as reports continued to stream in about academics who had been conned by these bodies. Ahead of the new academic year, the public has been urged to first check an institute's registration qualifications on the higher education department’s website before applying for admission to a course or paying any fees. Departmental spokesperson Ishmael Mnisi said an investigation would be launched into these illegal operations.
