The college offers a three-year Diploma in Primary Education to full-time students. The potential candidates need five credits, including English and mathematics. The enrolment is one hundred students every year. There are hostels for men and for women.
Additionally, the college offers a two-year Diploma in Primary Education to distant students.[2]
In 2014
Spokane, Washington, United States, completed a program in which it offered a master's degree in education through e-learning for the teachers at Lwanga. The government of Zambia had stipulated that with these degrees Lwanga could be raised to the status of a four-year university and offer the Bachelor in Education degree.[3] Master's theses were aimed at improving teaching methods in Zambia.[4] All twenty-five of the teachers and administrators from Lwanga who were involved in the program were flown to Spokane for two weeks of intensive instruction as one segment of their course.[5] The twinning arrangement with Gonzaga is ongoing.[6]
