About the Commonwealth of Learning

The Commonwealth of Learning (COL) was inspired by the vision that the peoples of the Commonwealth must and can have access to knowledge, regardless of where they live and whether they are rich or poor. It was created by Commonwealth Heads of Government in late 1987 and became operational in early 1989. 

The Commonwealth of Learning is an intergovernmental organisation, with headquarters in Vancouver, with a mandate to widen opportunities for learning in the Commonwealth member states by promoting the development and sharing of ODL resources and communications technologies.  

Overview of the CEMBA/CEMPA Programme

The CEMBA/CEMPA Programme is designed to help busy practicing professionals, managers and public service officers gain a higher level of competency and develop an international perspective and global outlook.

The Programme is flexible — offered on a part-time basis while using a learner-centered system (in-class or online) so students can continue to work while accessing higher education. 

The Programme provides comprehensive and in-depth coverage of challenging issues through core, elective and project courses in Management and Public Administration.

The Programme significantly benefits from the excellent learning materials developed by individuals from top Commonwealth universities and institutions.  

The Programme is modular and allows for multiple exit points, in response to the requirements of working managers and administrators. The terminal certification for the two streams is the Commonwealth Executive MBA and Commonwealth Executive MPA degree, respectively.
