Website is here. No apparent connection to Cambridge University, except that both have addresses in Cambridge.

They do not issue "degrees"; instead they issue "professional qualifications," specifically "diplomas." However, "Candidates are able to transfer credits to Bachelor and Master Degrees from the consortium of European Open Universities."

The consortium of European Open Universities is listed here. Neither Cambridge, nor any other obviously legitimate university, is listed among them. Some of the member insitutions are unknown to Google.

Cambridge Association of Managers

This place is definately not connected to Cambridge University. I am alomost certain that they are (ab)using a good name for their own benefit and promotion.

After doing a bit of research I found some interesting pieces of information:
The „Cambridge Association of Managers“ (according to their website) is affiliated to an accreditation agency called QAC-UK (http://qac-uk.org/). There is nothing wrong with that other than I question this organization’s creditbility – no references, no real contact details, vague information, etc.)

But then I found something very interesting: Irish International University is accredited by QAC-UK.

Since I am also new to this forum, I was extensively reading through past threads. Some of the discussions were talking about a bogus school called “Irish International University” (www.iiuedu.ie). This place is neither Irish (in fact it is established in Malaysia – please have a look at some of the pictures, amazing), nor of any serious nature. According to the threads and referenced media articles, they are involved in a number of lawsuits and diploma mill classification.

Now this circle may be a pure coincidence, but it draws a perfect picture for me....
