About this list
Every institution in the published list is marked "Registered" and every programme "Accredited". The list gives no registration or accreditation dates, so we show these as listed by HEA on the date read, not as a statement that a registration or accreditation is current today.
Programmes and levels are as the registry gives them ("Degree" is HEA's level for bachelor's programmes). Where a programme is listed more than once under different accreditation numbers, it is shown once with all its numbers. The registry gives no programme durations.
Names are as HEA's registry writes them. Some institutions appear under more than one spelling (for example "The Copperbelt University" and "Copperbelt University", or "Trans-Africa" and "Trans- Africa Christian University"); each entry is shown separately, as listed, because the registry doesn't say they are the same institution. The one exception is "Zambian Royal Medical University (continued)", whose programmes are shown under Zambian Royal Medical University.
