Star Employee of the Month 🌟

Congratulations to Ang Gibbons on being recognised as iQ Academy’s Star Employee of the Month.

Ang joined iQ Academy in May 2025 as a Learning Designer and Technologist, bringing with her valuable experience in administration, quality assurance, academic management, and learning design.

Her background has enabled her to contribute confidently across a range of Faculty projects.

Since joining the team, Ang has contributed to the development and finalisation of several study guides, including Risk Management, Home Caregiver, Electrical Engineering, and Interior Design. She also developed the study guides for the Advanced Project Management curriculum, which was recently reviewed by PMSA and received compliments for its high standard and quality content.

Ang is known for her calm and caring nature, as well as her willingness to support those around her. She is always ready to assist colleagues, share her knowledge, and offer guidance when needed.

Her professionalism, positive attitude, and strong work ethic have made a valuable contribution to the Faculty department and the company as a whole.

Outside of work, Ang is a dedicated mother who proudly supports her children, particularly in their rowing activities, often spending weekends cheering them on at regattas. She recently completed a wine hike in Stellenbosch and, in true Ang fashion, fully embraced the experience - even purchasing red wine despite not being a fan of it.

We are incredibly proud to celebrate you Ang - keep shining ✨

To the dads studying after work, on weekends, and in the quiet moments between responsibilities, we see you.

Being a father means showing up every day. For many dads, it also means continuing to learn, grow, and work towards a better future for themselves and their families.

Today, we celebrate the fathers who are balancing work, family, and education while setting an example that learning never stops.

Can you really study without paying registration fees or large upfront costs? At iQ Academy, the answer is yes.

One of the biggest reasons people delay studying is because they assume they need a large amount of money to get started.

For many South Africans, finding thousands of rand upfront for education simply isn't realistic. Between work, family responsibilities, transport costs, and everyday expenses, it can feel difficult to prioritise further learning.

That's why iQ Academy offers interest-free monthly payment options on all our courses, with no registration fees required.

This means students can spread the cost of their studies through manageable monthly payments while working towards their goals.

Whether you're interested in a Short Course to build new skills or a Higher Certificate to take the next step in your education, flexible payment options can help make studying more accessible.

We believe that your ability to learn and grow shouldn't be determined by whether you can afford a large upfront payment.

Sometimes the hardest part is getting started. Flexible monthly payments can help make that first step a little easier.
