 “Richfield’s promise to our students and prospective students is that of quality teaching, of a relevant curriculum, in a premium campus or on a world-class learning platform for our distance learning students,” says Adam Kelly, Growth Ten’s chief commercial officer. Strategically placing the new campus at Library Gardens means access for everyone via a centralised space as Richfield continues to prioritise flexibility for part-time and full-time learners, where they can balance their studies with work or other commitments. This learning style works particularly for the institution’s postgraduate, executive education, and MBA program students.

“These additional courses have played a critical role in our mission to be an institution that goes above the call of duty of just teaching. Students who partake in these classes acquire skills in artificial intelligence, data science, quantum computing, robotics and automation, and more. Now more than ever, there is a need for technically skilled individuals as more advanced technology gets integrated into work processes and strategies; thus, we have created curriculums and programs that will differentiate our graduates in the job market,” says Shireen Chengadu, Growth Ten's chief academic officer.
