196 graduates, one historic first
This year’s CBU eCampus graduation was unlike any before it. For the first time, students who studied law entirely online walked across the stage to receive their Bachelor of Laws degree. Alongside them, 195 other graduates from our MBA and postgraduate programs completed journeys that, for most, ran alongside full-time jobs and family responsibilities.
196 graduates. One historic cohort. Every one of them proof that a serious online degree in Zambia is no longer an experiment.
The first online LLB cohort in Zambia
Until now, earning a law degree in Zambia meant being physically present in a classroom. That was a hard barrier for working adults, for people in provinces far from Lusaka or the Copperbelt, and for anyone whose life did not fit neatly around a campus timetable.
When CBU eCampus launched the online LLB, the aim was to change that. These graduates are the proof it works. They studied Zambian and international law, used our integrated e-library, collaborated virtually with peers and lecturers, and sat examinations through our secure online portal. They did not compromise on rigor. They just did it differently.
The degree is fully accredited by the Higher Education Authority (HEA) and provides the academic foundation required to enter the legal profession in Zambia.
The full class of 2026
The LLB cohort drew the most attention, but the rest of the graduating class tells an equally important story. Our OnlineMBA graduates are stepping into leadership roles across Zambia’s private and public sectors. Many reported promotions and career moves before the ceremony even took place. Others used their studies to pivot into new industries.
What they share: they earned their degrees while keeping their lives running. That is what the CBU eCampus is built for.
How it works behind the scenes
Every graduate in the class of 2026 studied on the Astria Learning platform, which gives CBU eCampus students 24/7 access to lectures, course materials, and secure assessments. Our network partnerships with UbuntuNet Alliance and ZAMREN keep connectivity stable across the country, which matters when your students are spread across provinces rather than gathered on a single campus.
