All the programmes offered by Milpark Education are benchmarked against international standards. In South Africa, all higher education programmes must be quality assured by the Council on Higher Education's Higher Education Quality Committee (HEQC). Once the HEQC has approved a programme, it is registered by the Department of Higher Education and Training and is also listed on the National Qualifications Framework (NQF) which is administered by the South African Qualifications Authority, known as SAQA. The National Qualifications Framework (NQF) is a 10-level framework in terms of which all higher education (HE) qualifications are constructed and mapped. To further cement this standing, Milpark offers the only online AMBA-accredited MBA in Africa. Other accreditations include SAICA accreditation for our Postgraduate Diploma in Accounting qualification, offered through Milpark incorporating CA Connect.
The School of Commerce offers majors in Compliance and Risk Management or Taxation. The School of Professional Accounting, offers a BCom in Accounting, and the School of Financial Services, offers majors in Banking, Financial Planning, Investment Management, Short-term Insurance, Credit or Banking and Investment Management.
