GIBS ranked as top Africa business school
The yearly UK Financial Times’ Executive Education rankings has again ranked the University of Pretoria’s Gordon Institute of Business Science (GIBS) as one of the world’s top providers of executive education programmes.
Ranked at 44, GIBS was the only African and South African business school on the list.
Other top schools ranked included Harvard Business School, University of Oxford: Saïd and MIT: Sloan.
As a global benchmark for executive education, the rankings rate the top 50 business schools globally by combining delegates’ and companies’ views of open and custom programmes. Business schools provide the details of a number of top clients who are then asked to complete an online survey.
South African corporates and multinational firms operating across Africa and abroad responded to the survey regarding GIBS.
The ranking relied on criteria such as preparation, programme design, teaching methods and materials, faculty diversity, future use, new skills and learning, facilities and food, as well as women participants, to name a few.
“The rankings once again provide an affirmation that our efforts are recognised on a global stage. To be ranked among the top business schools in the world is a great achievement and speaks volumes as to the quality of education that we offer. The feedback received from such surveys is invaluable, as it allows us to benchmark our programmes against global standards,” GIBS Executive Education director Shaun Rozyn said.
Professor Nicola Kleyn, who began her tenure as Dean of GIBS in April, added: “We live by our ethos of aiming to significantly improve responsible performance of individuals and organisations through high-quality business education and this accolade will drive us to continuously improve our programmes within an ever-changing economic landscape.”
