List of Milpark Business School Courses Offered
Each qualification and course at Milpark Education is offered through specified delivery modes. It is important that you are aware of this when you make your selection. Refer to either the course brochure or fact sheet of the specific programme you are interested in, or contact your nearest campus for assistance.
FULL-TIME STUDY
Full-time study means that students attend classes on a daily basis during the day. This usually implies that our full-time students are not employed and, as they are either recent matriculants or school leavers, they are able to attend daily classes on a full-time basis for the number of years required to complete the degree.
PART-TIME STUDY
Part-time students are usually employed, so they tend to be able to complete fewer modules over a longer period of time. Most part-time students choose distance-learning programmes, as this allows for more flexibility.

Contact Learning
CAMPUSES
Milpark Education has two teaching campuses: one in Cape Town and one in Johannesburg. Each of these cities has its own appeal, and its own attractions.
Johannesburg
The city of Johannesburg, or Jozi or Egoli, is located in Gauteng, the smallest region in the country and South Africa’s economic hub.
Cape Town has been called the ‘Monaco of Africa’, and it’s not hard to see why.
CAMPUS LIFE
Full-time and part-time classes
As a contact-learning student, you will attend timetabled classroom sessions on campus. Full-time study requires attendance at classes on campus during office hours. Part-time students usually attend classes after hours or on weekends. If you choose to be a contact learner, this means you will engage with our staff face-to-face.
COVID19Milpark’s contact-learning delivery mode operates fully within national guidelines regarding COVID19. Our online delivery programme functions very successfully, and in the event that it is required, we will move our contact-learning classes to our online platform. We have delivered the 2020 academic year via Online learning with great success. Your learning will not be impacted in any way by potential lockdown regulations.
Lecturer Engagement
On our campus, you will experience dynamic and engaged lecturers, equipped to address the individual needs of all our students. Our lecturers are trained to assist students to learn from one another and to share their professional experience. Our students are encouraged to engage with each other, and with the academic staff, to ask questions and give input. Students have online access via the learning platform on myMilpark, and general academic support throughout the year is available, both in person (the lecturer or tutor) and online. myMilpark is an important communication channel between Milpark Education and its students. All documents relevant to students’ modules and qualifications can also be accessed on myMilpark.
Counselling Services
We also offer professional counselling services to student who experience problems. Help is available for methods of study, career decisions and planning, and personal problems such as stress management or trauma. All students are invited to make use of this.
Easy access to the library is available on-site or online from the myCourses home page. Academic writing must be supported by reliable sources, and Milpark provides students with the resources they need for additional reading and research assignments. Students have access to online journal databases (including Emerald, Ebsco and Sabinet) and an eBook library, Scholartext. Students and lecturers create their own virtual bookshelf containing books which can then be read offline. Librarians are available to assist students via email and telephone with help in accessing suitable resources.
The campus is Wi-Fi enabled, and facilities for studying and group work are available.
Student relaxation areas are also provided, and an on-campus canteen providing food and drink is easily accessible.
Distance Learning
QUALITY LEARNING AT A DISTANCE
When a student enrols for distance education, they are not necessarily required to spend any amount of time at a specific location (in some instances, this may depend on the discipline field). They also have the advantage of being independent and in control of their time. This is a very suitable option (delivery mode) for working people or for people with special commitments.
Study anywhere, at any time
Milpark Education is committed to ensuring a high standard of practice and delivery on programmes in order to optimise the student experience of studying at a distance. We regard every element of the learning experience as important in contributing to student success. These elements include administration and support, course development (including study guides and other resources), assessment and learning support. Effective course development is crucial in opening up the learning experience to the student.
Student support at a distance
Being at a distance, all students are entitled to proper support and the resources that they need. Milpark Education has a tutor service to assist students during their studies. Students who experience study and personal problems are also assisted through student counselling. If students need help with a specific academic problem, they can request assistance from their tutor. For continuous administration, interaction and support, students can access the fully functional online environments of myMilpark and myCourses.
Self Service Administration
myMilpark allows students to apply and register online, to change details such as exam venues and personal details, to access results as soon as they have been released, to print results letters and to access their uploaded, marked assignments. Examinations are offered at 40 locations in South Africa and in any foreign location, on request.
On myCourses, students can also access a wide range of academic support services where there is a dedicated environment for each course. Here they can access their study plans, assessment plans, assignments (assignments can be uploaded), learning material, online tests and they can take part in discussions. Online environments are mobile enabled and students can access all these services from their mobile devices.
Study material available online
Academic writing must be supported by reliable sources. Milpark Education has extensive online resources available in its online library that can be accessed remotely by distance students. Students can also create their own online bookshelves!
