This makes Milpark\u2019s offering ideal for individuals who want to change their degree or career or who want to begin their studies as soon as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And your success is their success. The course is run by the experienced former lecturers of CA Connect, who focus on providing both the business and financial acumen that students need to be successful in the field. These lecturers also focus on helping their students develop soft skills for the workplace through additional modules such as strategy and leadership as well as decision-making.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Learners are then exposed to case studies that apply learned skills to real-world scenarios, to further enhance their knowledge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Milpark Education\u2019s unrivalled support structures are as impressive as the subject matter taught, and the institution uses group and individual study habit data to track learner behaviour and performance. For example: if a learner has been offline for a week, staff will be alerted and can check up on them to see if they need support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe evidence and the feedback we get from students is crystal clear: if they are better equipped to manage the many factors that influence and impact on their higher education journey, they have more time to focus more fully on their education,\u201d said Milpark Education\u2019s Gareth Olivier, Head of School: School of Professional Accounting at Milpark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Incredible growth<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Milpark Education (incorporating CA Connect) is also the largest contributor of PGDA students writing SAICA&#8217;s ITC board exam. &nbsp;SAICA has previously called on education institutions to make education more accessible and this is exactly what Milpark is focused on doing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMilpark is on a growth trajectory that is unmatched by other institutions,\u201d said Olivier. \u201cIn time, given our BCom, PGDA and Bridging courses, this could set Milpark up to become the biggest provider of South African chartered accountants.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Sign up today<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Applications for Milpark Education\u2019s BCom Accounting mid-year intake close on 21 July 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t miss out on this golden opportunity \u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/423uVP0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>apply to study a BCom Accounting degree from Milpark Education today.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2023 mid-year intake open until 21 July<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":57,"featured_media":695557,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10459],"tags":[18103],"class_list":["post-695543","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-industry-news","tag-milpark"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/695543","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/57"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=695543"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/695543\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":695551,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/695543\/revisions\/695551"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/695557"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=695543"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=695543"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=695543"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
