Our Story →University Partners
Maverick Business Academy London offers Master's programs awarded by the institutions named below. Rushford Business School is a private Swiss business school, not a Swiss university, and we confirm its status in writing for each program. The routes also include Girne American University, the University for the Creative Arts, the University of Wolverhampton, and the University of the West of Scotland. We confirm the award pathway and current authorization in writing before you enroll. The Dual MBA, UCA with Rushford, is that written pathway. Maverick does not list Rushford as a direct campus partner.

70+ attendees. 20+ questions. 5 live polls. One highly engaging session.
We successfully concluded our webinar, “Driving Profit, Performance & Business Transformation,” with strong participation and insightful discussions around ERP, finance, working capital, process gaps, margin leakage, operational efficiency, and business decision-making.
The interactive case study encouraged participants to look beyond surface-level problems and ask a more important question: Are we solving the right problem?
A key takeaway from the session was simple but powerful: Diagnose before you prescribe. Understand what is happening, where it is originating, and what impact it is creating before deciding on the solution.

Maverick Business Academy London invites you to an exclusive Executive Masterclass facilitated by Irene Riad, Founder & CEO of SightCET.
Join us for an inspiring session designed to strengthen your leadership identity, mindset, confidence, and ability to create meaningful impact.
Leadership is not defined by a title, a position, or a milestone — it is reflected in the way we think, influence, inspire, and create an impact on the people around us. Our Leadership Beyond Success Masterclass was all about exploring leadership from a deeper perspective — understanding the mindset behind effective leaders, challenging conventional thinking, and reflecting on what it truly takes to lead with purpose in today’s changing world.
The session brought together professionals, learners, and members of the Maverick community for meaningful conversations, fresh perspectives, and valuable learning beyond the classroom.
At Maverick Business Academy London, we believe education should go beyond qualifications. Experiences like these create opportunities to learn from industry professionals, exchange ideas, build stronger networks, and develop perspectives that can make a real difference in both personal and professional journeys.
A sincere thank you to everyone who joined us and contributed to the energy and engagement of the session. Learning continues. Leadership evolves. Impact grows.

Everything you need to know before beginning your Maverick journey.
Maverick Business Academy helps students and working professionals explore programmes and navigate applications through partner universities and awarding organisations. The portfolio includes undergraduate, postgraduate, research and professional diploma routes. The exact award, delivery arrangements and support depend on the programme, so use an eligibility review to understand the offer that fits your goals.
Maverick provides programme and application guidance around partner-delivered awards. The awarding institution and each organisation's responsibilities should be identified in your offer, including teaching, assessment, registration and student support. An institution's accreditation does not automatically cover every partner route; check the programme-specific arrangements before enrolling.
The supplied portfolio spans several qualification levels: • Bachelor's degrees, including routes that may recognise prior learning • MBA, Executive MBA, MSc and LLM study, including a linked Global MBA pathway • Doctoral research routes • Professional diplomas at Levels 3, 5 and 7 • Educational travel through Maverick Edutainment Current availability and entry conditions depend on the chosen offer. Moving between levels is subject to the next programme's requirements.
Maverick welcomes enquiries from students worldwide, and online routes can support study from where you live and work. Availability still depends on the programme's admissions, delivery and attendance rules. Blended learning can include in-person commitments; confirm the actual route, schedule and any access restrictions before assuming that relocation or travel will never be required.
The awarding university or organisation should be named in your programme offer. For the partner qualifications in this portfolio, confirm the exact award title and issuer, particularly where a pathway includes more than one credential. Teaching support, recruitment and awarding responsibilities can differ; ask how your final award can be verified directly with its issuer.
Start with your existing qualifications, experience and intended next step. Share these with the advisory team and compare programmes by subject, entry criteria, study commitment, total cost and awarding arrangements. If you need a qualification for further study or a regulated profession, check the receiving organisation's requirements before you decide.
Recognition and accreditation must be checked for the exact programme and purpose. Institutional status, programme accreditation and regulated-diploma approval are different things; one does not automatically establish the others. Ask for the awarding body and current programme-specific evidence, then check acceptance with the relevant employer, professional body or receiving university before relying on it
Confirm the support included at each stage of your chosen programme. Ask about programme guidance, eligibility and documentation help before enrolment, then academic, technical and assessment support during study. If careers or graduation services are important to you, check who provides them and their scope. Support commitments should be clear in the offer rather than assumed across all partners.
Join a global community of learners, professionals, and leaders.
