About Elephant & Cross
We are the Malta and Ireland partner of three UK institutions. Since 2021 we have enrolled working adults on diplomas, degree top-ups and ACCA, all studied online, around the job they already have.
Find your course
Both of us tried to study around a full-time job. Neither experience was good.
“I started Elephant & Cross because of my own MBA. It took me months to find a course I could do online around a full-time job, and there was nobody in Malta I could ask whether it was recognised or worth the money.”
“For me it was the master’s I never got to do. I applied for a part-time course at the University of Malta, weekday evenings, in person. I heard nothing until after the start date, when they told me it was cancelled.”
So in 2021 we started Elephant & Cross.

“Top notch service! In May I have started the Online Diploma in Business Management, studying everything online in my own time and my own pace has been amazing! Also, whenever I needed any help and support, Andrew the Course Advisor is always there for you and also reply to any of your queries within the same day and make sure to provide all the information needed!”
“I completed my Level 5 Diploma in Business Management (120 ECTS) through Online Business School (OBS), and overall the process went smoothly. What made a big difference for me was the support I received locally. Andrew Critien was always there to guide me, explain things clearly, and respond whenever I had questions. It felt reassuring knowing I had someone in Malta I could rely on.”
“I am currently following an MQF Level 5 Business Management course, and every time I needed assistance, the team was always available, supportive, and willing to guide me. Their professionalism and dedication have made my learning experience smoother and more enjoyable. Highly recommended.”
“In addition to the course being reasonably priced, I truly valued the flexibility it afforded me to study at any time of day and turn in assignments without worrying about due dates. The fact that the course was entirely assignment-based put me at ease.”
“The team are super helpful and very supportive. They truly care about your success.”
“I recently completed an MQF Level 7 Post Graduate Diploma with Elephant and Cross, and I couldn’t be happier with my experience. … I was particularly impressed with how responsive they were to my emails and phone calls. They always replied promptly, which made me feel valued as a student.”
“Elephant & Cross is the best and easiest way to obtain Level 4 and Level 5 without having to quit your job. You can study at your own pace with no assignments deadlines. I enjoyed studying here and I thank the administrator for the establishment of ‘Elephant and Cross’.”
“I had a very positive experience with Elephant & Cross from start to finish. Their support and guidance throughout the entire process were excellent, and I always felt well informed at every step. … I never encountered any problems along the way and their professionalism really stood out. I also look forward to continuing my studies with Elephant & Cross in the future.”

“Highly recommended for anyone wishing to get a degree or diploma with an accredited University while studying at their own pace and having tutor support when requested. The team at E&C are very helpful, professional and supportive. I would like to thank Andrew specifically for his help when I had questions regarding my course. Thank you for creating this platform!”
