How had HSSC been transformed into HSMC？

The Hang Seng School of Commerce (HSSC) was established by the Hang Seng Bank in 1980 as a private school to offer Diploma programmes in Business Studies to school leavers. To satisfy the requirement for registration under the Post-secondary College Ordinance (Cap 320), the HSSC set up the Hang Seng Management College (HSMC) to be the degree granting body of all degree programmes duly accredited by the Hong Kong Council for Accreditation of Academic and Vocational Qualifications (HKCAAVQ) (http://www.hkcaavq.edu.hk).

Is HSMC a recognized institution leading to operate degree programmes?

Are all programmes offered by HSMC recognized in Hong Kong?

Yes. All of our degree programmes had already been accredited by HKCAAVQ. They are currently registered at Qualifications Register (QR) (www.hkqr.gov.hk) and recognized under the Qualifications Framework (QF) (http://www.hkqf.gov.hk).
