HOW RECOGNIZED IS ACCA-OXFORD BROOKES DEGREE IN NIGERIA?
Greetings Mr Jarus,I must say that you and your team are doing a great and
uncommon work by empowering people with accurate information for a productive life.I had an encounter with your blog when browsing the internet a week ago.Since then,I have made it a point of DAILY duty to ‘eat’ everything on it.It’s simply wowing! Nigeria is indeed a great nation. Please keep the flag flying.
Sir, my enquiries are:
i)Is the Oxford Brookes University degree earned via ACCA just like any other FULL HONOURS DEGREE?
ii)Is it RECOGNISED & ACCEPTED for work?
iii)Are there people in Nigera who have obtained the NYSC discharge or
exemption certificate with it?
Many thanks for the usually accurate and rest-giving answers you will deliver.
Our God shall continue to bless you all.
With much respect and admiration from REHOBOTH

Thanks for the kind words, Rehoboth.
I felt this is better answered by a trusted professional colleague that has ACCA (I have ICAN certificate).
His response:
There is an option to elect for an Oxford Brookes certificate during your registration for ACCA.
Thu, on successful completion of your professional papers, you would have to prepare a project paper after which you would be evaluated and then awarded the Oxford Brookes certificate. Just like your degree in Nigeria.
Yes.. It is a recognized degree and can be accepted for work.
Not sure I’m aware of any NYSC discharge or exemption certificates for the Oxford Brookes
There you have it. I also know a couple of people that had the certificate and are using it for work.
I wish you all the best.
Jarus

Good day Mr. Jarus,
i am studying MBA(with foreign affiliations) options in Lagos. i have come across Heriot Watt and Business School Netherlands as good options. But not sure about their accreditation as I could not find these names on NUC website.
Can you advice please.
