WELCOME FROM OUR EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR I am delighted to welcome you to the School of Business and Computer Science Ltd. (SBCS). This booklet has been formulated to provide you with important information about our institution. At SBCS our focus is on delivering an excellent service to our students.

SBCS celebrated its 25th Anniversary on February 13, 2012. This date marked a significant milestone for our institution, and the staff and faculty who dedicate themselves to advancing the careers and lives of our valued students. Our journey began as many great journeys do - on a small scale but with the promise of untold potential. Our first building was located at #3 Santa Cruz Old Road in San Juan, before we relocated to Champs Fleurs in September 1990 - and this has been the flag-ship location which has given birth to three other campuses in Port of Spain, San Fernando and Trincity. Our focus over the years has been to build and maintain a reputation for high quality teaching at the tertiary level. We acknowledge the support of the students who placed their faith and trust in our institution in those early years when we were virtually unknown. Today, some of these first students have joined the institution, albeit in different capacities, as either lecturers or Managers. The location at Champs Fleurs allowed our operations to expand and thrive - it provided us with much needed space and our students now had access to a campus that was conveniently located and easily accessible from all the main cities across the island. The flagship campus located at Champs Fleurs today bears little resemblance to the first building that stood at Sagan Drive in 1990. Over the past 22 years we have been expanding, renovating, and perfecting the site to provide the ideal learning eco-system for our students. We are proud nonetheless to acknowledge that it is still a work in progress. At the turn of the new millennium, three other campuses were opened. In 2003, our Centre for Media Studies was opened on Picton Street in Port of Spain. Three years later, in 2006, our South campus was opened in Cocoyea Village, San Fernando to attend to the needs of the students in the nation’s second largest city. In 2008, the doors to our newest campus were opened at Beaulieu Avenue in Trincity. Each of our four campuses was born out of our drive to create optimal learning environments which appeal to learners from diverse backgrounds. While each campus has its own individual identity and purpose, they are united by a common commitment and share the same vision, mission, primary objective and corporate mantra:

We welcome students regardless of age, as the diversity and relevance of our programmes transcend biological age. If you have a passion for knowledge, an inquisitive mind, and the right attitude, then you will enjoy your stay with us, as we promise to deliver to you an excellent service, at a profit if we can, at a loss if we must, but always excellence. Dr. Robin Rabindranath Maraj Founder & Executive Director
