Dublin Business School Exchange Program

Every year, one staff member from both Kaplan Business School (KBS) and Dublin Business School (DBS) travel to their sister school for a weeklong immersive experience. KBS and DBS are the most similar schools in the global Kaplan network, with an abundance of opportunities to collaborate on various initiatives, share ideas and drive best practice. We maximise and harness this similarity by offering a staff member from each school the opportunity to travel to Dublin, Ireland each year.

CULTURE AT KBS

At Kaplan Business School, our thriving success is rooted in a vibrant company culture embodying integrity, knowledge, support, opportunity, and results.

We fervently cultivate inclusivity, kindness, and collaboration, fostering an environment where each member contributes their best. Our culture propels us forward, driving innovation and excellence in education.
