​There’s something about IBSU…

This was obvious during the announcement of its sponsored contestant to the Miss Pacific Islands Pageant (MPIP).

A trend that started last year, which even has the Vice Chancellor Edward Silva’s support, IBS is committed to continue sponsoring a female student yearly into this national pageant.

The recently made university views this as a way of women empowerment.

“IBS is not only concentrating on education – we need to make the complete personality, especially for women,” said Silva.

Institution offers second chance to athletes

But, that however, is no longer a concern under the Athletes Excellence Program which is supported by the Institute of Business Studies (IBS) through the Papua New Guinea Olympic Committee (PNGOC).

The programme aims to offer elite PNG athletes the opportunity to obtain educational qualifications through the IBS Diploma and Certificate courses.

These educational qualifications will contribute to their development as individuals and lead them into a successful professional career after their sporting endeavours.
