Global School of Business- Business Training School South Africa - Qualifications & Courses

<body> <p>This page uses frames, but your browser doesn't support them.</p> In mid 1994, five concerned educationalists pooled their considerable experience in education and training and formed a high quality business school. Our mission is to provide a caring and personalised environment for the growth and development of our students and to offer truly international courses and qualifications. This latter objective was deemed crucial to rectify the limitations and introspective views which developed in South Africa tertiary education due to the long period of international isolation. In fact, our branding was intended to attract students into international studies. back to top By early 1996, Global opened a second campus in Randburg (northern suburb of Johannesburg). At that time, ties were established with Bond University in Australia. Bond University is invited to the annual MOOT CORP MBA competition, held in Austin, Texas. Eighteen Ivy League Business Schools (Harvard, Wharton, Kellogg, M I T) and a number of blue chips from Europe (e.g. London Business School, Lyon, INSEAD) compete in this challenge which is called the "World Series of MBA competitions" by Business Week. Bond University has the best track record in this competition, winning in 1996 and 1994, coming second in 1995 and 1993 and winning in 2000. This unprecedented third win coupled with being runners up on two occasions, marks Bond as the most consistent performer in the competition. On 28 June 1996 a contract was received, authorising Global to offer Bond University programmes in South Africa. Programmes are delivered at Global's new high-tech purpose built campus in Sandton, Johannesburg as well as our new St. Albans campus in Lynwood-Glen, Pretoria and in Rondebosch, Cape Town. Half the lectures are given by Bond faculty and half by local academics, approved by Bond University. The first MBA intake in January 97 had 53 students. In 1998, Bond introduced an MBA with an Information Technology emphasis to South Africa in addition to it's General MBA. Both these programmes were oversubscribed, and students were limited to 45 in each class. At the end of 1996 Global was validated by the University of Hull UK to deliver its MBA in Strategic Marketing in South Africa. This would be the first specialist MBA to be presented in South Africa. In July 1997 the first intake commenced in Johannesburg. In January 1998 programmes commenced in Johannesburg, Pretoria, Durban, Cape Town. The University of Hull MBA in Strategic Marketing is still the only MBA in South Africa to have gained full accreditation from the IMM (Institute of Marketing Management). back to top In August 1996 Global was acquired by Advanced Technical Systems Ltd (Advtech) which was the top performing company on the JSE in 1996. In 1998 Advtech was rated overall as one of the top 5 companies in South Africa by the annual Financial Mail Corporate Survey, published in November 1998. This achievement was to be followed by an even greater distinction, in being selected by "Forbes Global Magazine, Nov 2 1998 issue" as "One of the World's Best 300 Small Companies". Only 7 South African companies made the list. In March 1998, April 1999 and April 2000, we sent a South African Bond MBA team to compete in the international MBA competition in San Diego, USA. The competition comprised of 40 universities which were narrowed down to 5 finalists. We are extremely proud to announce that our 1999 MBA team was placed second overall and our 1999 team made the semi-finals. This is a unique achievement for South African Business Schools, and from the Bond South Africa MBA perspective gives us the comfort that our students are equipped to compete with the best on an international basis. Bond University in Australia also won the 2000 world series of MBA competitors in Texas, USA Global has within 4 years become the most successful part-time IMM tuition centre, producing more graduates over the past 5 exam sittings than any other college. Our average pass rate over all the subjects in the last two exams have been 75%. Global also has the distinction of being the largest ICSA part-time tuition centre in Gauteng, with prize winners over the last 6 exam sittings. We are still the only tuition centre to achieve first, second and third place in a single exam sitting! In March 1998, our MBA in Strategic Marketing from the University of Hull became the first MBA programme to be accredited by the Institute of Marketing Management (IMM). During November 1998, Global was awarded the PMR (Professional Management Review) Magazine's Silver Arrow Award for it's marketing courses. Global will continue to focus on the part-time professional institute diploma market where it has achieved great success in the recent past, being one of the leading tuition centres for IMM, ICSA, PRISA and SAIM students. The Bond University General MBA programme will be offered in Johannesburg, Pretoria and Cape Town in 2000. The Bond MBA with the IT focus will be offered in Johannesburg and Pretoria. The Bond MBA with a marketing specialisation will be offered in Johannesburg, Pretoria and Cape Town. Global School of Business is proud to have been chosen to offer the IEX graduate diploma in Export Management at our Sandton campus. For more information, see global courses. Global has also been in the forefront of establishing the first private international University offering undergraduate degrees from Bond University, Australia. A range of undergraduate degrees will be offered from the year 2000. The new purpose built campus is located in the heart of Sandton, and offers one of the most technically advanced campuses in SA today. Build your studies into an international degree.
