GIBS regularly invites visiting instructors, experts from different industries and two corporate leaders every week to participate in the GIBS Learning Model, as well as the Multiple Real-World Business Methods.
These meetings are held approximately every two weeks as part of a comprehensive set of value-added activities such as workshops, industrial site visits, and placement-related programs that have been arranged with various corporate partners.
The Purpose of These Types of Guest Lectures:
To provide students with insight into how an actual business operates by being able to hear from professionals who operate real businesses on a daily basis.
To help students make the connection between what they have learned in the classroom and the actual application of those concepts in the industry.
To help students prepare for their upcoming job placement opportunities by giving them firsthand knowledge of current employment trends, case studies, and how the companies they plan to work for expect their employees to act.
GIBS usually holds a corporate or outside guest lecture at least one time per week, so guest lectures and events at GIBS are generally scheduled as part of the normal academic calendar, not as a few separate events.
