ABE in Malawi
Welcome
ABE's internationally recognised qualifications give students in Malawi the skills to build an outstanding business career. They also provide a fast, affordable route to a Bachelors or Masters (MBA) degree.
ABE is known for its relevant, accessible and affordable business qualifications which are flexible enough for you to study at your own pace, paying for assessments when you are ready to take them. Employers value ABE-qualified staff because they know how to make a difference in the workplace and many former ABE learners are now using the expertise gained from their studies to run their own successful businesses.
Whatever your ambitions, we are here to help you achieve your goals.

I personally chose ABE because it is recognised internationally for providing excellent qualifications, it is comprised of a multi-skills curriculum. It is a professional course and also there is a huge possibility that the qualification holder can work in foreign countries, unlike other qualification boards. In Malawi, employers and the public value prospective employees with an ABE qualification as they possess a wide variety of knowledge in overall business dynamics.
