Warnborough Legit, Clones Whine

[Warnborough]

Is Warnborough College a university? I'm sure the UK has hundreds of colleges with which Parliament takes little direct interest.

You know...
when you have to waste more time to explain what exactly a higher education provider is, as opposed to what is not, or to what many think it should be...well...
One thing is for sure: different incarnations of Warnborough folded, ceased operations, underwent complete overhaul, whatever...each time prospective clients were told it was as good as it could get...but it was always better the next...last time it was because of ISO9001...

Do they offer so many doctorates?

What is the difference between

It seems only the .UK bit enjoys some sort of accreditation to run vocational and other courses, but all call themselves Warnborough...

I especially love:

Warnborough College (UK) is certified for ISO9001:2008 standards by [COLOR="Red"]UKAS (United Kingdom Accreditation Service) [/COLOR]through its accredited certification body, DAS. The scope covers: 'Design, Delivery and Assessment of Accredited Education and Training Services Worldwide'. The 'Tick & Crown' logo provides visual assurance of the College's Quality Management Systems.

Not to be mistaken for http://www.ucas.ac.uk/, the real deal...
Hmmm
Some gullible buyers may be tricked into thinking UKAS is UCAS...

In the UK there has always been Warnborough College since 1973, and it did not close down. There is a difference between 'closed down' and 'relocating'. ASIC accreditation relates to Warnborough College (UK) only.

Warnborough University was incorporated in Ireland in 1997, and changed it name in 2006 to Warnborough College (Ireland) to meet Irish government requirements.

Simply, there are two Warnborough Colleges: one in the UK(accredited), and one in Ireland (undergoing accreditation). Both are separate legal entities.

ISO is internationally recognised by governments, and more and more colleges and universities are applying for ISO certifications. Having ISO in place is a plus for any accreditation, since it illustrates commitment to Quality Management Systems.
