About Omniversity Imperial College UK
Omniversity Imperial College UK is a UK-registered private institution established to provide professional education, executive development, competency assessment, practice qualifications, professional certifications, continuing professional development and recognition of demonstrated professional capability.
The institution operates within the scope permitted to private education and professional learning organisations under applicable UK law. Its corporate registration should not be interpreted as statutory university recognition, degree awarding powers, Ofqual regulation or Office for Students registration.
Omniversity Imperial College UK is deliberately positioned as a practice-focused, competency-based and standards-driven professional education institution serving experienced professionals, executives, managers, specialists, entrepreneurs and practitioners seeking formal recognition of knowledge and competence acquired through professional practice.
The institution provides flexible distance learning, evidence-based assessment and professional evaluation pathways designed to recognise demonstrated capability alongside structured learning and professional development.
Institutional Regulatory Position
Omniversity Imperial College UK is a private institution and does not present itself as a UK statutory university or a UK-recognised degree-awarding body.
The institution does not claim independent UK degree-awarding powers and does not represent its practice qualifications as Ofqual-regulated qualifications unless a particular qualification is subsequently delivered through an appropriately recognised awarding organisation.
UK Government guidance makes a distinction between providers of education and organisations with recognised degree awarding powers. Officially recognised UK degrees are connected to recognised degree awarding institutions and applicable regulatory arrangements.
Accordingly, qualifications awarded independently by Omniversity Imperial College UK are identified as professional practice qualifications, professional credentials, certifications, diplomas, fellowships or institutional awards, according to their particular structure and purpose.
Professional Education and Practice-Based Assessment
The central educational philosophy of Omniversity Imperial College UK is the recognition and structured evaluation of professional capability.
The institution integrates:
Accreditation of Prior Experiential Learning (APEL)
Competency Based Evaluation (CBE)
Skill Recognition (SR)
Evidence based professional assessment
Portfolio evaluation
Professional practice review
Competency mapping
Evidence verification
Professional certification
Executive education
Continuing professional development
Professional fellowship pathways
This approach enables experienced practitioners to present documented evidence of their professional knowledge, responsibilities, achievements, competencies and contributions for structured evaluation.
The emphasis is therefore placed on demonstrated competence, verifiable professional experience and assessed capability, rather than relying exclusively upon conventional classroom attendance or time based academic progression.
The Omniversity Assessment Architecture
Omniversity Imperial College UK applies an integrated assessment pathway built around:
APEL → Evidence Submission → Competency Mapping → CBE → Skill Recognition → Evidence Verification → Assessment Decision → Qualification Award
This architecture is designed to establish a documented relationship between an applicant’s prior learning, professional experience, demonstrated competence and the requirements of the relevant practice qualification.
Assessment decisions are based upon submitted evidence and the applicable assessment criteria. Where evidence is insufficient, additional evidence, clarification, assessment activity or professional verification may be required.
ISO Aligned Quality Framework
Omniversity Imperial College UK develops and operates its institutional, educational and assessment processes with reference to internationally recognised ISO standards relevant to education, quality management, learning services and personnel certification.
These include:
ISO 21001:2025
Educational organizations management systems.
ISO 9001:2026
Quality management systems.
ISO 29993:2017
Learning services outside formal education.
ISO/IEC 17024:2026
Conformity assessment requirements for bodies operating certification of persons.
ISO 21001:2025 is specifically designed for educational organisations and can apply to private education providers, e-learning organisations, training centres, lifelong learning and distance education.
ISO 29993:2017 addresses learning services outside formal education, including lifelong learning, vocational training and in-company training.
ISO 9001:2026 is the current edition of the ISO 9001 quality management standard.
ISO/IEC 17024:2026 establishes requirements for organisations operating certification of persons, including requirements concerning certification schemes, assessment, certification decisions, impartiality, records, confidentiality and complaints and appeals processes.
Omniversity uses these standards as applicable benchmarks for institutional governance, quality management, educational delivery, assessment integrity, documentation, learner services, professional certification and continual improvement.
ISO alignment or benchmarking does not itself constitute UK government accreditation, university recognition or Ofqual regulation.
International Professional Relationships
Omniversity Imperial College UK maintains professional relationships, memberships, affiliations and benchmarking relationships involving organisations in the United Kingdom, Canada, the United States and other jurisdictions.
These include relationships associated with:
Skill Development Council Canada (SDC Canada)
UK International Qualifications (UKIQ UK)
International Qualifications and Assessments USA (IQA USA)
California University Foreign Credential Evaluation (CUFCE)
Omniversity International Council for Academic and Practice Qualifications and Assessments (OICAP QA)
Such relationships may support professional benchmarking, skills development, qualification assessment, credential evaluation, curriculum referencing and international professional engagement.
The existence of an affiliation, membership, evaluation or professional relationship does not automatically mean that all Omniversity qualifications are government accredited or regulated in the jurisdiction of the external organisation.
Omniversity Imperial College Lagos, Nigeria
Omniversity Imperial College Lagos, Nigeria operates as a related Nigerian professional education and assessment entity supporting the wider Omniversity professional education ecosystem.
The Lagos operation provides professional education, executive development, training, assessment and practice qualification services within its applicable Nigerian legal and institutional framework.
The UK and Nigerian entities should be understood according to their respective legal registrations, regulatory environments, and operational scopes.
The Lagos entity does not convert the UK institution into a statutory Nigerian university, and the UK registration does not convert the Nigerian entity into a UK-regulated higher education provider.
Practice Qualifications
Omniversity Imperial College UK provides structured professional practice qualifications designed around demonstrated competence and professional experience.
These may include:
Certificate of Practice
Advanced Certificate of Practice
Diploma of Practice
Advanced Diploma of Practice
Bachelor of Practice (B.Prac)
Master of Practice (M.Prac)
Doctor of Practice (D.Prac)
Professor of Practice (Prof.Prac)
The D.Prac is positioned as a terminal professional practice qualification based upon advanced professional competence, documented contribution, leadership, innovation, professional impact and evidence-based assessment.
The Prof.Prac represents a professional practice appointment recognising substantial professional authority, contribution, leadership, mentorship and demonstrated expertise.
These awards are distinct from UK statutory academic degrees unless expressly awarded or validated by a separately authorised degree awarding body.

The Omniversity professional ecosystem includes sector-specific institutes and professional practice bodies covering leadership, management, education, artificial intelligence, security, finance, human resources, procurement, quality management, training, energy, maritime administration, hospitality, marketing communications, peace and conflict resolution and related professional disciplines.
These bodies operate as professional development and practice recognition structures.
Their activities should not be interpreted as conferring statutory professional licensing or government degree awarding powers unless a specific external legal or regulatory authority expressly provides such authority.
Artificial Intelligence Supported Assessment
Omniversity Imperial College UK incorporates appropriate artificial intelligence supported processes within its educational and assessment architecture.
AI may support:
Evidence organisation
Competency mapping
Document analysis
Assessment workflow management
Learning support
Knowledge management
Quality assurance
Professional portfolio analysis
Assessment administration
AI-supported processes remain subject to institutional controls, human oversight, evidence verification and applicable assessment requirements.
The institution does not treat automated output as an independent substitute for professional assessment judgment.
Distance and Flexible Professional Education
Omniversity Imperial College UK operates primarily through flexible distance learning and evidence-based assessment.
This model enables professionals to undertake structured learning and assessment without conventional full-time campus attendance.
Applicants may participate through digital communication, electronic documentation, supervised assessment processes, and other approved distance learning mechanisms.
The model is particularly suited to experienced professionals whose knowledge has developed through employment, enterprise, leadership, professional practice, technical responsibility, institutional service or other substantial practical activity.
Leadership
Omniversity Imperial College UK operates under the strategic leadership of Professor Tokunbo Akeredolu-Ale, PhD, President, Board of Trustees and Governing Council.
His professional and academic interests encompass artificial intelligence-powered marketing communications, leadership, organisational management, professional education, competency assessment and practice-based learning.
Under this leadership, Omniversity has developed an institutional model centred on the structured recognition and assessment of professional capability and experiential learning.
Institutional Philosophy
Omniversity Imperial College UK is founded upon a simple proposition:
Professional capability should be capable of being identified, evidenced, assessed and formally recognised.
The institution therefore seeks to create structured pathways through which experienced professionals can transform accumulated knowledge and professional experience into documented competency profiles and practice qualifications.
Its educational model connects professional experience with systematic assessment.
Its quality model connects institutional processes with internationally recognised standards.
Its qualification model connects demonstrated competence with defined professional outcomes.
Institutional Position
Omniversity Imperial College UK should therefore be understood as:
A UK-registered private institution
A practice-focused professional education provider
A competency-based assessment institution
An APEL and experiential learning provider
A professional certification and fellowship provider
An ISO aligned and ISO benchmarked institution
A distance and flexible professional education organisation
An international professional education institution serving practitioners across jurisdictions
It does not describe itself as a UK statutory university or independently as a provider of UK government recognised academic degrees.
Where a programme involves an external awarding, validating or regulated body, the identity and regulatory status of that body should be expressly stated.
