The ICB Student Portal is there to help all ICB students, especially the ICB distance learning students. This is because of the many uses that the portal has. It allows you to keep track of and manage every aspect of your studies from one place.
How do I get Access to the ICB Learner Portal?
The ICB registration is a very simple process if you use the ICB login portal. First, you will need to go to the portal home page. You will need to click on the Register button. If you are already an ICB student you will only need to fill in a few things before you get access.
Registering if you are Already an ICB Student
You will need to fill in your name, surname, and your email address. Next, you will need to choose if you have a South African ID or if you have a foreign ID. Fill in your ID number and your ICB reference number and click register. You now have access to the ICB Learner Portal.
