Course details

Henley offers the only internationally triple accredited MBA from an international business school in Africa. Henley is part of the University of Reading, UK, which is ranked as one of the top 1% of universities worldwide by the Times Higher Education World University Rankings 2012. The Henley MBA has been in South Africa since 1992, making it locally relevant, while keeping its global focus on what business leaders should know. Over that time the programme has become established as the leading international MBA.

In 2002 the South African office became a fully owned subsidiary of the College in the UK. As the operation in South Africa is the only Henley Management College centre in the African continent, we have students living in neighboring countries studying and being supported through this office.
