The Sydney Institute of Business and Technology (SIBT) is a private educational institution. It operates as a pathway college, offering diploma and foundation programs designed to prepare students for university entry. SIBT is affiliated with Western Sydney University, a public university, but remains independently owned and managed.
SIBT provides accredited courses that align with Australian higher education standards. While it collaborates with public universities, its private status means funding comes from tuition fees rather than government sources. This distinction affects operations, governance, and student demographics compared to public institutions.
