The Avondale Business School is fortunate to work alongside a number of key business partners. With the growth in work integrated learning opportunities for students, Internship and project-based opportunities for students have been welcomed by ABS.

In 2020 we have already linked a number of our students to Internships with both our Adventist key business partners, as well as other entities. It is highly likely this year we will see Internships, individual student projects, as well as class projects, being undertaken by our students, providing them real life learning opportunities. For these students, the opportunity to work on such projects allows the ability to integrate their learnings from their business course with its practical application in a workplace. This is one way that we at ABS believe we are meaningfully preparing our students to be work ready when they complete their studies.

Thank you to those business partners who are considering their needs, and who are identifying opportunities where such students may be providing benefit to their entities. If ABS are not currently working with you, but this may be of interest to you, we would be happy to talk to you about the opportunities this may present your business.
