CAMBRIDGE INTERNATIONAL COLLEGE IN CAMEROON

In 1997 a CIC Cameroon Campus was opened in Douala, with the support, best wishes and advice of H. E. Yunga Teghen Joseph the Secretary for State of the Ministry of Education (picture 1, with Vice Principal David Lawson, right, and Regional Director Morris Musema, centre), the permission of H.E. Nkoungou Ferdinand the Governor of Litoral Province (picture 2, with Vice Principal David Lawson) and under the guidance of the then Minister of Higher Education H.E. Jean-Marie Atangana Mebara, to whom the College offers great thanks. 

Since then many thousands of Trainees, Members and Diplomates have completed their Study & Training or are currently doing so. A memorable Millennium Graduation ceremony was held in the year 2000, at which over 200 Members graduated from the College, and which was reported on by radio, television and newspaper; during that Ceremony the Minister for Higher Education H. E. Professor Maurice Tchuente was presented with the College’s highest Honorary award in Educational Management (picture 3). 

The College Vice Principal continues to visit Cameroon, often once but sometimes twice a year, and to meet government Ministers and other senior officials, as well as Staff and Members of the College’s Cameroon Campuses in Douala and Buea, and to attend Graduation Ceremonies (pictures 4 and 5). The College is fondly referred to as “The British College” in Cameroon.
