British Graduate School (BGS) was founded with campuses and operational hubs in both the United Kingdom and Sri Lanka. The institution was established with a clear purpose: to provide high-quality, internationally recognized qualifications to learners across the globe.
Since its inception, BGS has been dedicated to helping students uplift their academic qualifications through accessible, flexible, and globally relevant education. With a strong foundation in both traditional values and innovative delivery methods, BGS has grown into a respected institution supporting learners from diverse backgrounds.
At BGS, we believe that education is a fundamental human right. Our mission is to make higher education universally available and equally accessible regardless of geography, background, or circumstance.
We are committed to: Ensuring education is based on merit and equal opportunity Supporting the full development of human personality Promoting respect for human rights and freedoms Leveraging online and blended learning platforms to remove barriers to education By doing so, BGS aims to transform access to education and empower individuals worldwide to achieve their personal and professional goals.
Our vision is rooted in the belief that education is essential for every family and represents the best investment for prosperity, health, and independence. BGS strongly supports the rights of parents and learners to make informed choices about education. In many countries, education systems are constrained by limited resources often receiving less than 5% of national GDP.
In response, BGS is committed to: Ensuring inclusive, equitable, and quality education for all Promoting lifelong learning opportunities Advancing innovative, skill-based, and flexible learning models We envision a world where learners regardless of their location can access world-class education that prepares them for success in a rapidly changing global environment.
Level-based qualifications follow a structured progression pathway, allowing students to advance step by step—from foundational to doctoral-level studies—based on their pace, goals, and existing qualifications. This modular system adheres to recognized qualification frameworks such as the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF) in the United Kingdom, the European Qualifications Framework (EQF), and the Scottish Credit and Qualifications Framework (SCQF).
These frameworks ensure that each level corresponds to a specific set of academic outcomes and practical competencies. This structure offers significant flexibility. Learners can start at the level appropriate to their background, complete one stage, and then progress to the next while gaining relevant work experience. This approach encourages Work-Integrated Learning (WIL), a model that combines theoretical instruction with real-world application, enabling students to immediately use their knowledge in professional settings.
All qualifications offered through Qualifi, CQHE, and OTHM are subject to rigorous quality assurance processes. These awarding bodies are regulated by Ofqual, the UK government department that oversees qualifications and examinations. This ensures that all programs meet the highest standards of academic integrity and practical relevance.
Qualifi offers a wide range of vocational and academic qualifications from Level 3 to Level 8 and maintains articulation agreements with numerous UK and international universities.
CQHE operates as a global accrediting authority, emphasizing innovation in education delivery and the maintenance of international academic standards.
OTHM provides pathways that lead to Bachelor’s, Master’s, and MBA degrees. Its programs are well-regarded for their practical focus and strategic alignment with employer needs.
NQUAL (National Qualification Organisation for Applied Learning) is an emerging UK-based awarding body committed to applied and technical education.
The recognition of these awarding bodies allows for credit transfer, university progression, and global acceptance, making the qualifications suitable for both employment and further academic advancement.
As part of our strategic global initiatives, we maintain academic collaborations with esteemed international universities. These partnerships facilitate progression opportunities, credit recognition, and academic exchange, thereby enriching the learning experience for our students.
The University of the West of Scotland (UWS) is one of the United Kingdom’s leading modern universities, with campuses located in Paisley, Ayr, Lanarkshire, Dumfries, and London. UWS is well-regarded for its forward-thinking approach, research-informed teaching, and strong industry links.
UWS offers a diverse range of undergraduate and postgraduate programmes, with a focus on real-world application and career readiness. The university is globally recognised for widening access to higher education and is ranked among the top young universities in the world. Our partnership enables students holding recognised Level 4 to Level 7 UK-regulated qualifications to progress onto advanced stages of UWS degree programmes.

Through our collaboration, eligible learners may transfer credits and pursue progression routes into relevant bachelor’s or master’s degree programmes. Universidad Amauta is committed to producing globally competent graduates equipped with both academic knowledge and practical skills necessary in today’s professional landscape.
The growing demand for flexible, skill-based, and accredited education is clear. As more students seek alternatives to rigid university systems, qualifications offered through regulated awarding bodies become even more vital. The ability to earn while learning, to gain experience while studying, and to progress through levels with academic integrity and flexibility, represents a future-facing model of education that addresses the needs of learners and employers alike.
These qualifications are not only recognized by universities and employers around the world but are also designed to meet the needs of modern learners seeking a balance between education, employment, and personal development.
For more than twenty years, our institution has contributed to the transformation of higher education by offering internationally respected qualifications through Qualifi and CQHE. These level-based programs meet global academic standards, support work-integrated learning, and provide flexible progression routes for learners at all stages of life.
With accreditation, international acceptance, and a strong commitment to educational quality, these qualifications prepare students not only for successful careers but also for meaningful lifelong learning. In a world where academic achievement and practical skill must go hand in hand, the value of such programs is both clear and enduring.
