University of Wales Under Ministerial Scrutiny

The University of Wales' validation and franchising process is under scrutiny from the UK Education Minister following a BBC documentary. Details here:

The UoW seems to have something of an unfortunate predilection for affiliating itself to some rather questionable institutions. To validate one less-than-sterling program could be considered a misfortune; to validate a whole bunch of them seems very much like carelessness.

Another worthless validation: the University of Wales and nutritional therapy

 

Perhaps some heads will roll in this but ultimately it's a good thing that Wales is going to get clean.

 

Agree .

I remember reading over the years all kind of questionable affiliations.
Some here and on other forums criticized or questioned these type of affiliations.
