August 18th, 2021

Despite the onset of the COVID -19 pandemic, at least two institutions are reporting there’s a high demand from Barbadians looking to pursue studies.

One of them is the Barbados Institute of Management and Productivity (BIMAP).

Following a MOU signing with the Samuel Jackman Prescod Institute of Technology, BIMAP’s Executive Director, Dr. Sonia Greenidge-Franklyn, said they’ve shifted all of their 60 plus courses online given the COVID-19 environment.

She identified animation, management and others as the popular choices.

Meanwhile, in response to the numbers, SJPI Principal Ian Drakes says they’ve developed a hybrid delivery system for students.
