AVANCE UNIVERSITY

Government of Uganda through the National Curriculum Development Centre, under the Ministry of Education and Sports embarked on reviewing the Business, Technical and Vocational curricula to make it competence-based as advocated for by the BTVET Strategic Plan (2011 – 2020) of “Skilling Uganda”. Government emphasis has been placed on the provision of knowledge, skills, and work attitudes for majority of Ugandans with a view of improving service delivery and increasing productivity of citizens.

To ensure quality and standards across the country, the Ministry through National Curriculum Development Centre (NCDC) in partnership with the various institutions that had developed individual curricula took up the responsibility of harmonizing the curricula materials for all institutions both private and public. Government further streamlined the post Ordinary level programmes to run for two years, with the aim of equating such qualifications to the Advanced Certificate of Education and to allow for progression, and in accordance with the recommendations of the Government White Paper (1992).
