I have recently come across two people, both Asians, who have apparently obtained Masters from a private college with a franchise from a British university. In one case Sunderland. One of these gentlemen has three MBAs. In each case their English is deplorable. One showed me their work and it most resembled level 2, not even A level. It was rubbish. Neither of these men can speak English, let alone write it.
What it happening? Do they present other people's work or, just as likely, the private college's standards are very low and somehow, someway, the university is accepting this work? Why are they doing so? The Headteacher of a college, also Asian but with genuine qualifications, asks, as I used to do when in similar positions, prospective lecturers to write out part of an essay. Like my interviewees, most fail.
They don't seem somehow to realise their qualifications are bogus! They consider themselves highly intelligent, high achievers. They are not!
