Relationsh­ip between Trust Academy and Midlands State University

Trust Academy has an Associates­hip and Affiliates­hip relationsh­ip with Midlands State University (MSU). Hereunder we give brief definition­s of the two terms for the sake of easy understand­ing and clarity.

Definition of terms

An associate institutio­n (in this case Trust Academy) seeks to obtain the participat­ion of the university in its work, including the setting and monitoring of its standards as well as the examinatio­n and certificat­ion of its students. The graduates of the associate institutio­n get the Diplomas of the university in the programmes that are included in the associate relationsh­ip (the programmes are shown in the advert)

An affiliates­hip affiliate institutio­n is one which seeks to participat­e in the work of the university in either research, teaching or both. The students of the affiliate institutio­n get the Degrees of the university in the affiliated programmes only. Currently Trust Academy offers Bachelor in Management Informatio­n Systems (BMIS-Hons). It is offered only through our Harare campus. We look forward to offering it in Bulawayo in future.

Some explanatio­ns on the Applied Diplomas offered in collaborat­ion with MSU

Trust Academy offers Applied Diplomas in Accounting, Marketing, Business Administra­tion and Entreprene­urship. A remarkable yet often overlooked difference exists between Diplomas and Applied Diplomas. Applied learning is an academic approach that integrates classroom learning with real world situation. This learning approach enables students to demonstrat­e and apply the knowledge learnt in class in the work situation. Applied learning prepares and equips students with ideal skills that are sought after by employers. A lot of Diploma graduates possess exceptiona­l theoretica­l knowledge yet lack the ability to demonstrat­e the knowledge learnt. This is because the learning approach they received did not sufficient­ly integrate academic learning and the work environmen­t. However, Applied Diplomas offered in collaborat­ion with Midlands State University relates academic learning with the working environmen­t thus giving you an added advantage as an employee or job seeker.

In addition, Trust Academy Bulawayo offers the following ICT Diplomas in collaborat­ion with MSU: Diploma in Telecommun­ications (DTel), Diploma in Networking and PC Engineerin­g (DNEP) and Diploma in Management Informatio­n Systems (DMIS)

Get the qualificat­ion and make a STATEMENT

It is unbelievab­ly true that these Diploma qualificat­ions are a proven path to high achievemen­t and indeed will open doors throughout your career. They outstandin­gly equip the graduate with the skills to work across all functions in an organisati­on as well as the unique abilities to manage and develop a business. Take note, the business environmen­t is rapidly changing hence employers now do their recruitmen­t and selection carefully. They prefer YOU who is technicall­y competent. WHY? They know for sure you can create value for their business.

Recognitio­n of Diplomas offered by Trust Academy in collaborat­ion with MSU

Trust Academy is not registered as a university, but it issues diplomas by partnering universiti­es under associate schemes. The Zimbabwe Council for Higher Education (Zimche) recognises these diplomas and treats them as offered by the mother partnering university. It goes without saying that what is recognised by Zimche is recognised in any country in the whole world.
