Frequent workshops, live projects, and value-added programmes assist students to remain abreast with business trends. Exams are not too difficult but can be handled through regular study, and the chances of failing are minimal as the teachers counsel students throughout the process.

Other: GIBS is a very affordable institution to study at due to the value of money obtained through the learning process, corporate exposure, and placements.
