It offers programs in education to students in Papua New Guinea and the South West Pacific region through both face-to-face and distance flexible modes. Its primary focus is on education and training of teachers for the secondary schools. However, the School also provides for the training of Vocational and Technical college instructors, and Nursing College lecturers by providing both theory and practical hands-on courses in the context of developing countries, such as Papua New Guinea.
