According to a 2021 assessment by UK Ecctis, which represents the United Kingdom (UK) in all matters relating to international qualifications, the IEB-ISC is comparable to the UK's AS-levels, Australia's Senior Secondary Certificate of Education, and Kenya's Certificate of Secondary Education. Universities South Africa (USAf) also concluded that candidates who obtain the IEB-ISC with merit or at an advanced level, and are offered a place at a South African higher education institution, will have met the minimum requirements for admission to a degree programme.
Currently, the certificate is being offered in schools in Namibia, Eswatini and Mozambique, with the potential for further roll-out to other countries.
