Frequently Asked Questions
Studying Online
What device do I need to study at AfBridge?
Requirements vary by programme. Each programme page states the device, software and previous knowledge required before you apply.
Is AfBridge available in my country?
AfBridge is based in Ghana and delivers its programmes online, which allows learners in other countries to take part. Confirm with admissions whether a specific programme has any location-related requirement.
Is AfBridge accredited?
AfBridge Institute for Innovative Studies is a registered Ghanaian organisation (registered name: AFBRIDGE INSTITUTE FOR INNOVATIVE STUDIES LBG). Incorporation and academic accreditation are different matters - incorporation confirms AfBridge's legal registration and stated purposes, not the accreditation of individual programmes. Each programme page states the certifying organisation: AfBridge and its partner institutions.
How long does each programme take?
Programme duration, weekly study-time expectations and the live-session schedule are set and published per programme once approved. See the individual programme page for confirmed details.
Can I work while studying?
Our online delivery is designed for people balancing study with work, family and community responsibilities. Check the programme's schedule, any live sessions and the device requirements before enrolling.
Assessment and Completion
What is the assessed project for my programme?
Depending on the programme, practical work may involve a business proposal, a digital product, a teaching resource, a community education plan or another assessed project appropriate to the subject. The programme page explains the expected work and the requirements for completion.
What if my work does not meet the required standard?
Resubmission, deferral and progression policies will be published once approved by the Institute. Contact admissions for current guidance on your situation.
Investment and Applications
Is there an application fee?
Yes. Every certificate programme has an application fee of GHS 100. The application fee is non-refundable. The programme page and the Investment & Payment page show tuition and any compulsory additional charges, the currency and the applicable refund policy, once confirmed. A Donate link never improves an applicant's chance of admission - donations, tuition payments and application steps are kept separate.
How do I pay?
You can pay the full investment in one payment and receive a 5% discount, or pay in equal monthly instalments. Certificate programmes of one to three months have an investment of GHS 2,500 to GHS 4,000. One to two day certificate programmes have an investment of GHS 500 to GHS 1,000.
Who awards the certificate?
Certificates are awarded by AfBridge and its partner institutions. Each programme page names the certifying organisation.
Can my employer verify my certificate?
A verification process will be described here once the Institute approves one. Do not assume a verification method until it is published.
