The International Association for Quality Assurance in Pre-Tertiary and Higher Education (QAHE) is pleased to announce that OM Edition Academy Organization, which also operates as OM Islamic University, has been awarded institutional accreditation.
OM Edition Academy Organization is a fully online educational institution registered in the United Kingdom. It offers programmes across university, secondary school, and professional academy levels, and delivers its teaching in Dari, Pashto, and English. The institution describes its work as a combination of Islamic values and modern academic standards, under the guiding principle “Change for Growth, Growth for Change.” That combination of multilingual provision and a stated moral-educational purpose is central to its public identity and to the learner communities it seeks to serve.
The accreditation decision followed a review of the institution’s published profile. The Accreditation Committee found a clear educational mission, a multi-level programme structure, and a flexible online delivery model supported by digital tools. The institution’s emphasis on accessibility and learner-centred education was judged to align with QAHE’s quality expectations for institutions that reach students who may not be able to attend a traditional campus.
A distinctive feature of the organisation is the breadth of its offer within a single online framework. Provision extends from school-level and language study to professional short courses and degree-oriented pathways. Public materials have pointed to structured English language programmes across multiple levels, practical skills courses such as First Aid and computer training, and degree-level study including midwifery. The presence of both academic and applied routes supports the institution’s stated aim of preparing learners for further study and for professional life.
Delivery is designed for students who need to study across locations and time zones. The model relies on a learning management system, live sessions, recorded classes for self-paced study, and familiar communication channels for learner support. For communities whose first language is Dari or Pashto, and for learners seeking English-medium study, that flexibility is not an accessory to the academic offer. It is the means by which the institution makes its programmes reachable.
Operational transparency formed part of the public record considered in the review. The organisation presents itself as a UK-registered body and publishes information associated with company registration, UK provider identification, data-protection registration, and a UK address. These elements do not replace academic quality, but they help stakeholders identify the legal person behind the online brand and distinguish the institution from informal or unregistered provision.
QAHE accreditation is an independent institutional quality-assurance recognition. It confirms that the institution’s educational offerings, as reviewed, meet established standards of excellence. It does not constitute the authority to grant academic qualifications or degrees, and it does not replace national licensing, professional registration, or the recognition procedures of other countries. Graduates and partners should continue to verify how awards may be used in their own jurisdictions.
QAHE congratulates OM Edition Academy Organization on this achievement and looks forward to supporting its continued commitment to accessible, values-based online education. Further information on QAHE accreditation and the directory of accredited institutions is available at www.qahe.org.
