As a DHET-registered private higher education institution in South Africa, Lyceum College now operates with its own executive leadership, independent Senate, and strengthened governance structures. This renewed independence enables the institution to make agile, student-focused decisions that support academic quality while remaining fully aligned with the South African higher education regulatory framework.
Accredited Programmes and Regulatory Alignment
All qualifications offered by Lyceum College are:
- Accredited by the Council on Higher Education (CHE)

This ensures that every programme meets national academic standards and industry-relevant benchmarks, giving students access to reputable and recognised South African qualifications.
Commitment to Quality, Integrity, and Student Success
“We are building a stronger, more forward-looking Lyceum,” said Lindi Dickinson, CEO of Lyceum College. “Our focus is on credibility, academic integrity, and delivering qualifications that genuinely advance our students’ futures. The work ahead is deliberate, structured, and driven by a commitment to excellence.”
Under its renewed direction, Lyceum College has prioritised:
- Enhanced academic quality assurance
- Stronger student support systems
- Transparent governance
- Responsible and stable institutional leadership
These actions support Lyceum College’s mission to remain trusted by students, employers, and communities across South Africa.
A Future-Focused South African Higher Education Institution
