The mentors will be in Nigeria to observe the OBE Accreditation Exercise for selected engineering programmes at BUK—a critical process in COREN’s journey towards attaining full Signatory Status of the Washington Accord.

Achieving this milestone will not only strengthen quality assurance in engineering education but also open greater opportunities for Nigerian engineers through enhanced global recognition, mobility, and competitiveness.
