MAT ABACUS Business School Kigali campus

About MAT ABACUS

A business school in Kigali teaching professional accountancy, finance and management courses, and university degrees.

Our Story

MAT ABACUS Business School teaches professional and academic business courses in Kigali, Rwanda.

In 2019, two Kigali schools merged to form MAT ABACUS. Management Accountancy Training Company Limited (MAT), was founded in 1999 and had been teaching professional accountancy courses for twenty years. Abacus Business School, opened in 2015 and added academic and degree programs.

Today, we are an approved learning partner of Edinburgh Business School (Heriot-Watt University) and Oxford Brookes University, so students can earn a UK degree while studying in Kigali. We also prepare students for ACCA, CFA, CPA and other professional exams.
