OUR DIVISIONS The offerings in our schools division differs per brand based on price, curriculum, ethos, extra-murals, sport, etc. At our core, irrespective of the brand, ADvTECH delivers academic excellence. The range of schools in the group and their niche positioning enables us to provide quality education to specific markets. Within this market we distinguish ourselves through the variety of options we provide. E.g. through our brands we cater for different curriculums like IEB, Cambridge and National Senior Certificate (NSC). We offer pre-primary, primary and college education. Some brands have a Christian ethos, some are more traditional and others offer a modern and more liberal approach to education. Our brands are renowned for their academic excellence, which serves as the main differentiator from other competitor schools. We continue to make significant investments in the academics of the schools division. This includes investments in technology and blended learning models. We focus on attracting the best teachers, who share a commitment to excellence. Through ongoing training, and providing resources for our schools, we are able to offer a high quality education to our students. As the leader in the premium private schooling sector, we continue to develop opportunities for expansion in the premium sector whilst also having identified the mid-fee sector and the rest of Africa for additional growth. Our pipeline is continuously being developed to take advantage of growth opportunities, ranging from greenfield projects and acquisitions to new product development. 4 | ADvTECH INDUCTION TOOLKIT
“pay as you go” courses. Attracting and retaining the best people remains our priority. We realise that we would not be able to achieve success without the enthusiasm, commitment and hard work of all staff members across the division. This is why we continually invest in our people and strive to offer optimum working conditions to sustain our market leading position in the recruitment industry. We have years of experience in successfully providing quality higher education in the private sector and continue to meet the evergrowing demand for relevance and quality. We operate nine distinctive brands, each custom-made for a specific target market. The Independent Institute of Education (The IIE) education brands (Varsity College, Rosebank College, Vega and The Business School at Varsity College) offer a portfolio of tertiary products that reflect the changing needs of an evolving workplace within a rapidly changing society by offering dynamic, relevant curricula on well-resourced campuses, with a focus on student learning. While the ultimate goal is to achieve a qualification, the IIE is also committed to the development of the student as an individual and as such, the small classes, student support and the focus on a range of skills result in solid pass rates and the development of citizens rather than just graduates. With the clear understanding of the link between tertiary studies and the world of work, our programmes are designed to incorporate an element of actual or simulated workplace experience or other forms of practical application. In this way, we ensure that students are equipped to successfully make the transition from student to employee or even employer. Capsicum Culinary Studio together and The Private Hotel School are spearheading our development in the hotel and hospitality education industries. A leading culinary schools and high quality hospitality education providers, both Capsicum and The Private Hotel School offer qualifications and courses registered with the South African qualifications framework and internationally accredited by City & Guilds, the UK’s leading vocational education and training organisation. Through distance learning, Oxbridge Academy offers students opportunities to gain job-relevant skills and provides academic and student support from industry experts and tutors. The acquisition of University of Africa (UoA) signifies the tertiary division’s first step further into Africa beyond our borders. UoA has developed a business model to make tertiary education accessible to many communities by offering “register as you go” and The resourcing division brands all have distinct personalities, but all have one thing in common: a commitment to providing the highest levels of service to their candidates and clients. Having numerous brands in one division creates a healthy level of competition, while at the same time ensures all can benefit from shared expertise and well-documented best-practice principles. Resourcing services include an in-depth analysis of specific needs, personalised advice on market trends and available opportunities in a given market sector. Clients deal with a single recruiter who takes care of their specialist needs. The transformation of our workforce demographics to better represent the communities in which we operate remains an ongoing focus for the division. A proprietary learnership programme, arranged through the Federation of African Professional Staffing Organisations (APSO), is in place to enable the development of critical scarce skills in the South African employment sector. It equips talented individuals with the skills they need to find employment. ADvTECH INDUCTION TOOLKIT | 5
