The challenge

Good programmes, but the evidence had to show it

PIET, founded in 2006, wanted national-level accreditation. Its team needed three years of data captured, computed and presented exactly as NBA's SAR format demands.

Our approach

Build capability, not just a document

NBA subject experts worked side by side with PIET's taskforce, three days on campus each month, building datasheets together and closing gaps with practical fixes.

The impact

NBA accreditation for management studies

PIET's Department of Management Studies earned NBA accreditation, and its in-house team now owns a repeatable process for future SAR cycles.

What we delivered

Four workstreams, one SAR
