In the competitive world of accounting, it is often those with the best training that go the furthest. This was one of the primary motivators that drove the professionals making up the Forbes Lever Baker training team to integrate their talents and form and develop the Forbes Lever Baker (FLB) Educational Institute for Accountancy and Management.

Initially formed by Charles Forbes and Steven Lever in 2000, as a small accounting school based in Rivonia with its focus on aiding undergraduate and postgraduate students doing a B. Com, B. Compt. or B. Compt. Honours, increased student demand meant that a new partner had to be brought on board. This partner came in the form of Nizaam Baker who together with Charles Forbes and Steven Lever formed the Forbes Lever Baker Educational Institute for Accountancy and Management in 2001. In 2001 and 2002, FLB developed a reputation as a superior provider of accountancy based courses with UNISA. Due to increased demand for management and economics subjects, these courses have been offered by FLB since 2003 with great success. With the quickening pace and diminishing geographic boundaries of global economics requiring professionals in the business world to have the skills to keep up with global trends, FLB, as a school of accountancy and management , specifically geared towards the training needs of prospective Chartered Accountants, developed a simple yet poignant mission:

“To aim, through our passion, knowledge and integrity, to equip our graduates with the skills necessary to become world-class business leaders, empowered to create economic growth.”

Owing to the myriad of difficulties endured by many students intending to write their Chartered Accounting Board Exams, FLB has developed comprehensive learning materials that are taught by a highly professional, experienced and motivated team of lecturers working from the ideal studying venue; 6th level of Randburg Square, corner of Oak Avenue and Sentrum Street, Randburg. Students are assisted from their first year of undergraduate study through to their preparation for the Board Exam and because of its hands-on approach, encouragement of creative thinking, personal contact with the lecture team and solid reputation for producing top results (see table below), FLB has been recognised as an official UNISA tuition centre. This benefits you, the student, because not only does it mean that you receive lectures and support from one of the leading accounting training institutes whilst writing UNISA examinations and obtaining UNISA degrees, but it also means that you have access to the resources and expertise of one of the most recognised and acclaimed institutions in South Africa in the form of UNISA.

FLB has expanded its course base to include many business management and economics courses.

Students interested in management may do a degree in B Com (Financial Management), B Com (Management), B COm (Marketing Management), B Com (Risk Management) or B Com (Entrepreneurship).

A General B Com is also offered as well as tuition for the B BA degree.

In addition, B Com Honours is also being offered for Financial Management, Risk Management and Marketing Management.
