I believe this fails GNG. No detail on organisation, referencing covers assertion about nature, but no substance on the operation. While a mention of an organisation of the alleged nature could be seen as a public service, that is not Wikipedia's function. SeoR (talk) 08:50, 14 January 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete: As the nominator says, a public service warning against a purported university is tempting but outside Wikipedia's scope. This "institution" was mentioned in investigations alongside an associated Manchester College  of  Professional  Studies. The 2009 exposé is replayed on p3 of this 2011 Verifile report but I don't see that as enough to pass WP:DEPTH as an event, nor does it meet WP:NCORP. AllyD (talk) 16:50, 16 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete - per nom, fails GNG. Spleodrach (talk) 12:58, 18 January 2020 (UTC)
