Your institute of choice

A global academic community

Kaplan Business School offers programs suitable for both local and international students and provides the opportunity for students to become part of the global Kaplan community from the moment they start their chosen program. Graduates have a qualifcation that is recognised world-wide.

Recognised qualifcations

All courses offered by KBS are accredited as higher education qualifcations and listed by the Tertiary Education Quality and Standards Agency (TEQSA) on the national register. Our qualifcations are globally recognised as equivalent to those offered by any university or other approved higher education provider in Australia.

Collaborative learning

To achieve success in the world of international business students need to understand business operations globally, in addition to the cultures and languages of the individual markets they deal with. Learning alongside students from other countries will enrich the learning experience and prepare students for the international business environment, by giving them the opportunity to improve their communication skills, develop their cultural awareness and broaden their sense of belonging in the global community.

Future business networks

We understand our students are studying for a career and not just a qualifcation. Students at Kaplan Business School have access to various career-focused workshops covering areas such as networking and job search, application letters and resumes, and employment interviews. Students may also take advantage of networking events with professional organisations and employment agencies.

Practical expertise

Our lecturers teach applied, real-world practical skills, crucial to accounting and business studies, where the practical application in the workplace is as important as the theory.

Students increase their employability through their ability to demonstrate and apply their theoretical knowledge.

Professionally focused

Our programs are designed to prepare students for their chosen career in a corporate environment. They are developed and delivered by qualifed, industry experienced lecturers. Many of our academic staff have extensive experience as practitioners in their feld or have worked as trainers with CPA Australia and the Institute of Chartered Accountants Australia delivering

their professional programs. The practical focus and academic support KBS provides ensures students are ready not only to enter the workplace but to integrate, communicate and perform to the best of their ability at the end of their studies.

Flexible study

Three intakes per year and a timetable offering morning, afternoon and evening classes provides the fexibility for students to ft study around their work and family.
