YOUR BRAND<br />

What partnership with <strong>ADvTECH</strong> means<br />

We partner with quality educational<br />

institutions, to grow and make the most of<br />

their existing brands for mutual success.<br />

<strong>ADvTECH</strong> partners can rest assured that<br />

their hard-won reputation and respected<br />

corporate identity remains. Your values<br />

and ethos are yours to retain too. We look<br />

for alignment in values; not to replace<br />

yours with our own, but to promote<br />

collaboration and a sustainable working<br />

relationship.<br />

INTERNATIONAL<br />

ACCREDITATION<br />

<strong>ADvTECH</strong> offers 90+ accredited courses up to a<br />

Masters level. The Independent Institute of<br />

Education (IIE) is responsible for the academic<br />

leadership and governance of the Group,<br />

overseeing a total of 20 education sites. It is<br />

the only South <strong>Africa</strong>n educational institution<br />

accredited by the British Accreditation Council<br />

(BAC). Other notable accreditations include<br />

City&Guilds. Our schools division operates in<br />

both the Independent Examinations Board<br />

(IEB) and Cambridge International schooling<br />

systems and local curricula like NSA and CSA.<br />

GROWTH<br />

<strong>ADvTECH</strong> understands the value of our<br />

partner brands. We work with existing<br />

institutions to scale up their student demand,<br />

strengthen their academic performance, and<br />

create an efficient, sustainable private<br />

education business. <strong>ADvTECH</strong> believes it has<br />

the model to help these partners towards<br />

these goals, working in collaboration for<br />

mutual benefit. As a case in point, the<br />

number of full-time students in <strong>ADvTECH</strong><br />

education companies in 2015/16 grew by<br />

43% year on year. The International Finance<br />

Corporation (IFC) in 2016 became one of<br />

our main shareholders to support our<br />

growth strategies.<br />

ENDORSEMENTS<br />

We have long standing relationships and<br />

endorsements from The Open University (UK),<br />

ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE<br />

Our courses are internationally and locally<br />

accredited, and our education model<br />

ensures we support students to achieve<br />

their academic potential and goals.<br />

This is why enabling and fostering<br />

academic excellence is one of the core<br />

principles of the group. In doing so we<br />

help partners establish their quality<br />

academic reputation, differentiating them<br />

in a competitive market. This in turn<br />

creates demand from students, and<br />

enables our partners to grow.<br />

TECHNOLOGY &<br />

INNOVATION<br />

We are committed to using best-for-purpose<br />

technology and innovative solutions across<br />

the business, including with our partners.<br />

In education, we have used technology in<br />

the provision of remote learning, and as<br />

supplementary educational tools and digital<br />

resources. We can advise partners on the<br />

use of technology solutions that offer benefits<br />

in efficiency and efficacy to both the company<br />

and its students.
