Student Mentor System

Our student mentor system sets us apart from other institutions and ensures a student-centred learning experience. The student mentor system means you’ll have the opportunity to: ask questions, explore and truly understand what you’ve set out to learn.

It is IBaT policy to nominate a student mentor across all full-time programmes at the beginning of each academic year. The student mentor is a visible and active link between IBaT and the student body.

The student mentor:

• Listens to the concerns and questions of the student.

• Serves as the sounding board for ideas/concerns.

• Communicates with students and ensures they are aware of all IBaT resources and services.

• Provides assistance, support and guidance to students.

• Assists students with the student appeals process.

Our Teaching Methods

Our programmes are designed to prepare individuals for employment and/or further education. The broad range of business and technology subjects available provides comprehensive exposure to the core areas of business and management. Learning is an experience that occurs both individually and between you and your fellow participants. It is themeans by which you take in the theories, models, cases and other information that you are confronted with, how you synthesise them internally and finally, how you apply them in your daily work life as well as in your personal life.

At IBaT the focus of our teaching method is on creating learning together with our participants and staff. This is achieved through dialogue based and interactive lectures and discussions. We believe that competencies are not developed through one-way communication, but rather through a discussion of theories and the participants’ experiences.
