About Belgium Campus iTversity NPC

It was established in 1999 and offers diplomas, degrees and postgraduate qualifications in software development, infrastructure, data science, software engineering and cybersecurity. Its head campus is at 138 Berg Avenue, Heatherdale, Akasia, Pretoria, with further sites of delivery in Kempton Park (Gauteng) and Stellenbosch (Western Cape).
