COVID-19 Health and safety

We’re committed to protecting the health and safety of our students, staff, and the wider KBS community. KBS has taken numerous actions to ensure staff and students abide by heightened safety standards necessary to protect our community against COVID-19.

Our campus safety measures and risk controls are continually informed by State and Commonwealth Government health guidelines and advice to ensure an engaging and safe on-campus experience.

CAMPUS COVID-19 SAFETY

Kaplan Business School has introduced a range of COVID-19 risk controls and safety measures to keep our students, staff, and campuses safe.

  • All staff, students, visitors, and contractors will need to be fully vaccinated to attend the campus in Melbourne and Sydney. When on campus, you must be able to produce proof of vaccination or medical exemption
  • This is not yet the case for our campuses in Adelaide, Brisbane and Perth, but we’re closely monitoring State health guidelines and vaccination rates
  • Do not come to campus if you are feeling unwell or are experiencing any symptoms of COVID-19. If you feel unwell while on campus, please leave immediately, get tested, and isolate until you receive a negative result
  • If you have tested positive to COVID-19 and have attended one of our campuses during your infectious period, then please contact safe@kaplan.edu.au
  • All visitors must use QR codes to check in and out of all campuses
  • Everyone will need to observe social distancing requirements and maintain 1.5m physical distance from others
  • Class start times have been staggered and we have ensured classroom use is spread out throughout each day
  • All desks for student-facing roles have had plastic panelling installed
  • Regular cleaning takes place throughout all campuses, including high touch point areas
  • Everyone is encouraged to practise good hygiene including regularly washing and sanitising hands
  • Please clean or wipe down the equipment you use

The list above is not exhaustive and we’re constantly reviewing these measures and others in line with any changes to State or Commonwealth guidelines.
