Sadly, the term "curriculum" has degenerated to being perceived and accepted simply as 'the subjects comprising a course of study in a school or college'.
Having been actively engaged over three decades in the exciting cut and thrust of a convergence of entrepreneurship, technology development and education and training, and having seen the transformation of people and of communities engaged in learning through our unique methodologies the GEM College Executive has not been prepared to see any GEM College curriculum in such a diminished light.
To GEM College:
"Curriculum" is a planned, formalized design for teaching for certain known and intended learning outcomes, and for other unknown and unintended outcomes. It is the planned dynamic chaos that comes from the interaction of learners with other innovative people, peers, instructors, assessors, instructional materials and media, instructional activities and experiences, oneself and others, entrepreneurs and the entire learning environment interacting and interrelating as the pracademic ecosystem.
Our concept of "Curriculum" has shaped both our academic model and our business model. We are unique.
GEM College is not an educational organisation, nor an institution. It is an innovative educational organism.
We develop educators and entrepreneurs - We practice what we teach.
Bring your career to the next level with a globally recognized business degree. Our qualifications provide specialized, flexible, scalable training that meets your needs to be a future business leader.
GEM College of International Business is committed to ongoing improvements that will enhance the service that is provided to you, the client. Should you have any grievance with the way in which GEM College has conducted business with you, we will be pleased to listen to what you have to say. By doing so, hopefully, we will improve our service which, will in turn, benefit everyone accessing training through us.
In the first instance, any grievance should be discussed with the relevant Administrative person, Tutor or Facilitator. If they cannot resolve the problem to your satisfaction, it will then be referred to the Campus Manager. If the Campus Manager was your first point of contact or if the issue is still not resolved to your satisfaction, then the National Manager shall endeavour to resolve the matter. If the National Manager does not resolve the matter to your satisfaction, the Director-International Business or the Corporate Leader will be pleased to make an appointment and listen to your grievance. Further detail regarding our grievance and appeals policy is contained in our "Customer Service Charter and Grievance Policy" which is located at www.gemcollege.edu.au/student-policies/.
If you do not agree with the result given for an assessment task, you may appeal the assessment decision. You should first discuss the assessment result with your Tutor or Facilitator. If you are not satisfied with the outcome of that discussion, you can access the appeal process through the Campus Manager. More information on Learner's rights and responsibilities can be found at www.gemcollege.edu.au/student-policies/.
GEM College of International Business hereby gives an assurance that no discrimination shall be made against an individual or organisation lodging a grievance. We view all criticism and suggested improvements as ways that will allow us to improve our service to you.
GEM College of International Business is acknowledged as upholding the highest standards of ethical conduct and professional excellence. We inculcate these same standards in our learners and strive to produce business leaders with recognised integrity. Thus, our (benchmarked for best practice) policies and processes support this and protect both the College and learners.
The policies and processes of the College are transparent; we therefore discuss these with our learners during an Orientation Session at the commencement of each course. You will be required to acknowledge that you have read, understand, accept and are willing to ascribe these policies and processes during the Orientation Session. The college website (at http://www.gemcollege.edu.au/student-policies/) includes the following as essential pre-reading:
