Students educational background are reinforced in this ten-months programme in the Pure and Applied Sciences, Social Sciences, and Arts courses leading to the University of Cambridge (UK) Advanced level examinations for which the Kaduna Campus is a British Council (Nigeria) approved examination centre. Students with credit and distinction passes in the WAEC/GCE O-level examinations are admitted for the courses. With over twenty years of renowned and exceptional teaching qualities and strong academic guidance for our students, the post secondary arm of the College has a lot to live up to.

These have been designed to bridge the gap between knowledge, opportunity and practical application of skills.
