The desperation of many Nigerians to obtain foreign degrees following the derelict state of tertiary institutions in our country, has rendered them susceptible to fraudsters operating under the guise of running foreign registered and accredited institutions in the country, a Next investigation has revealed.

One of such spurious institutions which have defrauded unsuspecting Nigerians of money running into millions of dollars, is known by the names, British School of Project Management or Project Management College, UK.

The institution(s) runs programmes leading to the award of Executive Masters Certificates and Advance Diploma degree in Project Accounting and Project Management. Project Management College UK prides itself as the “Nigeria’s first project management training institute”.

Established in 2003, it has centres in Abuja, Abeokuta, Port Harcourt, Ibadan and Lagos, and also has opened shop in two West African countries - Ghana and Sierra Leone.

The institution charges fees that range from N150, 000 to about half a million naira, for a two-weekend to six months course.
