History
[edit]SBCS GLI was founded by Dr. Robin Maraj in 1986 and officially began operations in 1987. Then, it was located in San Juan, in a small house that accommodated both the living quarters and classrooms. In 1990, operations were relocated to Champs Fleurs, and this campus, now a multi-story complex, stands as the oldest operational site among SBCS’ three locations.
SBCS’ second campus was situated in Port of Spain, and opened in May 2003, while the third campus opened in February 2006 in San Fernando. The Trincity campus, SBCS’ fourth site, was established in September, 2008.
In 2018, the operations of the Port of Spain campus were merged with those of the Trincity campus. The Trincity campus was renamed SBCS’ Centre for Media, Communication and Design.[3][4]
