Latest newsWe live in volatile times, making leadership development more crucial than ever. But in that context, what sort of leadership development do we need, not just here in South Africa or on our continent, but in the world? And what are Milpark Business School’s plans to deliver it? 7 Oct 2024 Read more It is not easy getting a doctorate. Just ask Dr Thobile Pamela Mhlongo, who graduated with her doctorate in Business Administration in 2023. “It was very tough, I often joke about how I never missed a year in my whole educational journey, but I did drop out of my doctoral studies the first time due to work and other pressures and had to re-enrol to finish it.” 5 Sep 2024 Read more In the ever-evolving world of finance and business, risk management has emerged as a critical discipline. Professionals with the right skills to identify, assess, and mitigate risks are in high demand across industries. Recognising this need, Milpark Education has launched a cutting-edge postgraduate diploma in risk management and other risk management courses designed to equip students with the practical knowledge and skills necessary to excel in this vital field. 26 Aug 2024 Read more I’m thrilled to be facilitating the design thinking for problem-solving module in Milpark Education’s postgraduate diploma in business administration programme, commencing in Block 3 on 16 July 2024. For over 15 years, I’ve combined my background in information technology with human development expertise, fostering an interdisciplinary approach to design thinking. 20 Jun 2024 Read more In the heart of South Africa's political dilemma lies a crucial question that resonates with every citizen: to vote or not to vote? Being South African means navigating through a myriad of challenges in the realms of politics, economy, and society. As we stand at the crossroads of a complex societal maze, the decision to cast a vote emerges as a powerful tool for change. 4 Mar 2024 Read more Finance minister Enoch Godongwana delivered the budget speech on Wednesday, 21 February. The focus of the budget for 2024/2025 is on positive economic growth (forecasting an average real GDP growth rate of 1.6% per annum), energy interventions, and the use of additional reserves to reduce the country’s debt. 1 Mar 2024 Read more Looking back at her time on the reality TV show and competition, The Insurance Apprentice (TIA) 2023, Deirdré Blair-Henneberry laughs and says, “It was an absolute blast! I was so out of my comfort zone, but you know, you don’t grow if you’re in your comfort zone!” She was among 143 entrants who started the competition and in the final ten who competed for a Milpark Education bursary – which Deidré won. 28 Feb 2024 Read more We are thrilled to introduce Johnathan Dillon as the new Head of the School of Professional Accounting at Milpark Education. Dillon brings a wealth of experience and a passion for teaching and learning to his new role. 9 Feb 2024 Read more When Neil Bonhomme received his matric results a few years ago, he was crushed to see that he had failed mathematics. He thought this meant the end of his educational journey. It would be many years before he heard about an online bridging course at Milpark Education aimed at helping students improve their marks to help them get into degree programmes. 7 Feb 2024 Read more Industry and literature have been reshaping the workplace by introducing terms such as modern workplace and artificial intelligence (AI). However, understanding what constitutes a modern workplace, how AI can be effectively used and the role of HR in this context might be a challenging pursuit. Permit me to break down these terms and clarify how they interconnect with one another. 2 Feb 2024 Read more Alwyn Visser has a way of speaking about his passion for teaching BCom in Accounting subjects that would inspire even the most accounting-adverse person. Visser forms part of Milpark Education's School of Professional Accounting team and has played an instrumental role in developing the degree, which took in its first-ever cohort in January 2023. 5 Dec 2023 Read more The newly-created Department of Assessment Integrity is an indication of how seriously Milpark takes academic standards, says its head, Riette Brune. She believes the fast-paced online environment and the emergence of artificial intelligence (AI) demands continuous strict supervision and rigorous adherence to rules and regulations to ensure the educational institution maintains the highest levels of academic excellence. 16 Oct 2023 Read more Being a higher education student in a country that has been called the most unequal country in the world is not easy. For millions of students in South Africa, the challenge is not only to obtain financial funding to further their studies, but to find a way of surviving while they are studying and possibly supporting family members too. This is no mean feat considering that unemployment and especially youth unemployment in South Africa is staggeringly high at 60% according to most recent numbers. 28 Sep 2023 Read more Taking risks is part of any good business. As Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg has said, "In a world that is changing really quickly, the only strategy that is guaranteed to fail is not taking any risks." But which risks should be taken and which ones are best avoided? That is a question for a well-trained risk manager. 14 Sep 2023 Read more For Lazola Momo, three things have always been a given: his natural ability with numbers, a love for what he is good at, and the willingness to follow it and see where it takes him. 4 Sep 2023 Read more What is environmental impairment cover? 22 Aug 2023 Read moreWe tell our youth that to succeed in a precarious economic climate they must be proactive, identify opportunities, initiate their own ideas. But without a secure foundation to give them a decent chance - both in the skills they'll need to progress and the supportive context - these are just empty words. 21 Aug 2023 Read more Audit manager Stephanie White, 37, had always hoped to become a chartered accountant CA (SA) but a few years ago, she saw her prospects slipping away. She failed the Certificate in the Theory of Accounting (CTA) programme at a distance learning academic institution and, as she had to work full-time, she felt she was running out of options. 16 Aug 2023 Read more If you had told me at the beginning of bridging, that this journey would end, I would have agreed - every journey eventually ends. If you had told me that it would end successfully, I probably would have disagreed because I didn't have confidence in myself to believe in myself. If you had told me that it would have ended so successfully, I probably would have laughed at you - because that seemed like a crazy thought, especially since I had closed this chapter over ten years ago when I failed my first attempt. 8 Aug 2023 Read more
