As a business and as an educational family, our mission will always be to make education accessible for everyone regardless of where they are. During this time, we find ourselves in a unique position to be able to continue our mission because of the versatile way that we have developed our operations over the years.

Our entire campus is set up to function remotely and our dedicated teams of student advisors and faculty are able to support both new and existing students with no interruption. During the lockdown, we will continue to provide online education, learnerships, recognition of prior learning (RPL) and other skills development initiatives. Our online courses will carry on without interruption and our student support will be as thorough as it always is.

We do ask that all students please contact their faculty, either through the discussion forum or the faculty email addresses, to arrange an alternative delivery address for any hardcopy Portfolios of Evidence (using a courier service if these are still operating). Please do not send hard copies of your portfolios to the Chartall Campus as there are no staff onsite during the lockdown. Electronic portfolios can be uploaded to the LMS in the usual way.

These truly are unprecedented times but, as the song goes “every storm runs out of rain” (Gary Allen). As the national lockdown draws closer, we wish you and yours health and safety. And, when this storm passes, may we never forget the compassion and kindness that unified us during this time.

From the Chartall Business College team.
