Additionally, AUD students are able to fast track through the model set and benefit with an accelerated route made available for them.
AUD is granted up to eleven exemptions by CIMA, based on the School of Business comprehensive syllabi, for their global certifications, which is a significant value add for students.
AUD students in all Bachelors of Business Administration (B.B.A.) programs are offered exemptions in attaining CIMA Diploma’s after graduation, based on the number of related courses they have completed in their majors thanks to the current programs strength and incorporation of CIMA required studies.
