For many working professionals, returning to school can seem impossible. Balancing work, family, and study is a challenge. That’s where CBU ECAMPUS comes in. With fully online programmes, flexible study hours, and full academic support, it allows students to learn without putting their careers or families on hold.
In this article, you’ll hear from real graduates who chose CBU ECAMPUS and see how it helped them succeed.
For Lukas Kudumu Siremo, time was the biggest barrier to advancing his career. With a demanding job and limited free hours, traditional study options weren’t realistic. Enrolling at CBU ECAMPUS gave him the flexibility he needed.
“The good thing I find vital for professionals like me is the flexibility because you can work at your pace, whenever you find the energy or time.”
Lukas highlights one of the core strengths of CBU ECAMPUS—control over your own learning schedule. For many professionals in Zambia, this is the difference between delaying progress and finally achieving their goals.
Magdalene Mwamba is a mother of two who needed an option that could support both her career and her family. She found that balance through CBU ECAMPUS, delivered in partnership with Astria Learning.
“When I enrolled at Astria Learning, which is a 100 percent online platform, it was easy for me to actually work and also be with my family. On top of it, Astria Learning also offers flexible payment options.”
For parents juggling multiple responsibilities, flexibility is not just helpful, it’s essential. Magdalene’s story shows how online education can empower learners who otherwise might not return to school.
Libayi Manson enrolled at CBU ECAMPUS in 2019 after hearing strong recommendations from friends. With a full-time job, he needed an option that didn’t require him to attend classes at fixed times.
“Once you start your academic journey, you’ll experience good flexibility. For those working 9 to 5, attending classes in real time is impossible, but with Astria Learning, everyone gets a chance as you can study whenever you want. Course materials, library, everything is there for you to access it 24/7.”
Libayi’s experience highlights one of the most appreciated features of the CBU ECAMPUS model—always-on access to everything you need, from anywhere in Zambia.
