Business Insider Africa – Fadl Al Tarzi discusses Nexford University’s next growth phase following considerable popularity across Africa

As Nexford continues to see learner numbers grow across Africa, the timing has never been better for the university to enter the next growth phase.

The tech-enabled online university with an American license was established with the aim of solving the world’s biggest challenge: education. And now that its footprint in Africa is expanding to include Ghana and South Africa, that challenge is slowly but surely being eradicated.
