CTS College, Education Beyond Academics

Since our inception in 1999 CTS has always valued our students and we always strive to provide education beyond academics. Throughout the years we have partnered with our many stakeholders including students, lecturers, ACTT, our staff and partner institutions to ensure quality education was being delivered; and while do so, accomplishing quite a few feats along the way! These accomplishments have cemented our place in the tertiary education sector as an institution that is student centered and quality driven. It is testimony to our consistent performance and a true reflection of what we stand for and strive to achieve at CTS College, Education Beyond Academics.

It serves as a humble reminder that our students are our greatest asset and the awards would not have been possible without them.
