SGSM programs are designed to not only equip you with the skills and knowledge for managerial success, but are also structured to allow you to have a valuable and rewarding learning experience.

In order for you to gain optimum benefit from the programs, SGSM utilises a variety of teaching methods. These may include:

• Case studies
• Syndicate (group) work
• Research assignments
• Formal lectures and guest presentations
• Role-plays and discussion
• Site visits
• Work related projects that focus on an issue within your chosen organisation. This allows you to immediately transfer what you learn back into your workplace.

As a student, you are engaged in a process of active learning, whereby discussion takes place on the material, questions are encouraged, and you will form groups for more in-depth discussion.

SGSM unit content is developed so as to link the knowledge you gain directly with practical application, ensuring that the units are relevant to your day-to-day management experience. In some instances, organisations will submit to the SGSM case studies for use in research-based assessments.

Your commitment and input into the rigorous and demanding SGSM program generates an optimum benefit of increased knowledge, skill, personal development, as well as friendships and networking opportunities.

As with any professional business school, SGSM will present you with a toolbox of management techniques. SGSM also offers a guiding philosophy on how those tools are appropriately used. We aim to emphasise corporate social responsibility and good corporate governance as values underpinning the teaching and practice of the disciplines of management.
