Facts and practical information

The Zimbabwe Institute of Legal Studies in Harare, is the first and currently only college awarding law courses in Zimbabwe. It was founded in 2009 by Godwills Masimirembwa a lawyer by profession and former Chairman of the ZMDC. First students enrolled in 2010 and all programmes are taught in the English language. The college awards five courses up to National Diploma level through five law-related departments. The college is accredited by the National Council for Higher Education, under the Ministry of Higher and Tertiary Education. Therefore, the courses awarded by the ZILS have equal weight as courses awarded by Harare Polytechnic because their courses are accredited by the same body. In theory, the ZILS is a polytechnic of law because Harare Polytechnic does not offer law courses. ()
