This accreditation sets a benchmark for IBSU to deliver education at ISO standards, particularly those of Germany’s educational framework of quality administration and operational systems and procedures.
Global University Partners
Since 1999, IBS has been offering Australian degree programs. Initially, the programs included Accounting and IT from Southern Cross University. Over time, the offerings have expanded to include both online and face-to-face entrepreneurship and innovation courses.
In 2003, IBS became the first education provider to offer an MBA program in partnership with Deakin University in Melbourne, Australia, with face-to-face classes in Papua New Guinea.
We are the sole examination center in PNG for Deakin University, University of New England, University of New South Wales, Monash University, University of Southern Queensland, Charles Sturt University, and the ACCA/CIMA exams in the UK.
