[[African diaspora|African immigrants]] have experienced success in numerous countries especially [[Commonwealth of Nations|Commonwealth countries]] such as [[Black Canadians|Canada]], [[African Australians|Australia]] and the [[Black British people|United Kingdom]], which have attracted many educated and highly skilled African immigrants with enough resources for them to start a new life in these countries.<ref name="BlackAfricanMigration2" />

In the [[United Kingdom]], one report has revealed that African immigrants have high rates of employment and that African immigrants are doing better economically than some other immigrant groups.<ref>{{cite news|title=African success in UK highlighted|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/4222812.stm|access-date=16 July 2013 | work=BBC News|date=7 September 2005}}</ref> Africans have obtained much success as entrepreneurs, many owning and starting many successful businesses across the country.<ref>{{cite web|title=History Of Success For African Entrepreneurs In UK|url=http://africanbusinessmagazine.com/blogs/guest-columns/history-of-success-for-african-entrepreneurs-in-uk|publisher=Africanbusinessmagazine.com|access-date=16 July 2013|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130807094839/http://africanbusinessmagazine.com/blogs/guest-columns/history-of-success-for-african-entrepreneurs-in-uk|archive-date=7 August 2013}}</ref><ref>{{cite book|url=http://dro.dur.ac.uk/116/1/57CMEIS.pdf|title=The Egyptians of Britain: A migrant community in transition|publisher=University of Durham|location=Durham|date=May 1997|last=Karmi|first=Ghada|series=Centre for Middle Eastern and Islamic Studies Occasional Paper|volume=57}}</ref> Of the African immigrants, certain groups have become and are highly integrated into the country especially groups which have strong English language skills such as [[Zimbabweans in the United Kingdom|Zimbabweans]] or Nigerians, and they often come from highly educated and highly qualified backgrounds.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/london/content/articles/2005/05/27/ethiopian_london_feature.shtml|title=Ethiopian London|publisher=BBC|access-date=2013-07-16}}</ref><ref name="UKAfricanIntegration8">{{citation |title=Black Africans in the UK: Integration or Segregation?|url=https://www.academia.edu/1508032 |series=Understanding Population Trends and Processes Research Findings |publisher=Economic and Social Research Council |access-date=16 July 2013|last1=Mitton|first1=Lavinia |first2=Peter |last2=Aspinall}}</ref> Many African immigrants have low levels of unemployment, and some groups are known for their high rates of self-employment, as can be seen in the case of Nigerian immigrants.<ref name="UKAfricanIntegration8" /> Certain groups outside of having strong English skills have found success mostly because many who immigrated to the UK are already highly educated and highly skilled professionals who come with jobs and positions such as business people, academics, traders, doctors and lawyers as is the case with [[Sudanese in the United Kingdom|Sudanese]] immigrants.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.iomlondon.org/doc/mapping/IOM_SUDAN.pdf |title=Sudan: Mapping exercise |publisher=[[International Organization for Migration]] |location=London |date=July 2006 |access-date=16 July 2013 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120915032008/http://www.iomlondon.org/doc/mapping/IOM_SUDAN.pdf |archive-date=15 September 2012 }}</ref>

As of 2013, [[British Nigerian|Nigerian immigrants]] were among the nine immigrant populations that were above average academically in the UK.<ref name="Gwbcobempst">{{cite news|title=White British children outperformed by ethnic minority pupils, says thinktank|url=https://www.theguardian.com/uk/2013/mar/22/white-british-children-outperformed-by-minorities|access-date=3 January 2015|agency=The Guardian|date=22 March 2013}}</ref> [[Euromonitor International]] for the [[British Council]] suggests that the high academic achievement by Nigerian students is mainly from most of the pupils already having learned English in their home country.
