The University of Botswana, Lesotho and Swaziland Schools Examinations Council (UBLS/SEC) is preparing to expand its external examination and certification responsibilities, as well as its role in primary and secondary school curriculum development within its member countries. This plan addresses the educational measurement aspects of the expansion, as well as its economic feasibility. It also estimates the technical advisory assistance, capital requirements, and local staff training required for the Council to become an educationally effective and economically viable regional institution by 1985.
