Faculty of Business

Studying at Griffith College added so much value to my personal and professional development. Griffith is a fairly small college with small classes and a nice little campus. I prefer to study in an environment where the lecturer knows you by your forename, as well as your strengths and weaknesses and can help you properly if you are struggling.

Realistically, I would have been able to go back to college if it wasn’t for blended learning. It’s the only way I could have earned a degree while still progressing in my career. By the time I finish, I’ll have a level 8 Bachelors in Business and years of experience in a global marketing company. It would have taken me seven years to achieve what I’ve gotten in four.

Studying and writing complement each other. Whereas college is determined by module material – understanding, learning and retaining information, writing is entirely self-directed and allows complete creative freedom. The business knowledge I've learned through the course has helped me immensely, as publishing a book is a mini business venture. Accounting modules helped with keeping on top of costs, while other areas gave me an insight into the operational side of the shops I am selling through.
