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 />

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.
