CTS College Leadership

Executive Director

Ravi Ragoonath

CTS College is not just a place of study nor work but truly a place which brings people together – students, lecturers, programme managers, staff and employers. The inclusiveness of the organization is largely attributed to the Executive Director whose passion to serve others has created an organization that is reputed for having one of the best student support system in the country and region.

Mr. Ragoonath is not just an administrative figure but features prominently in the classroom as well. His first love is teaching as it allows him to build a stronger bond with his students so that not only can they know him better but that he too can understand their needs to better serve them.

Ravi, as he is affectionately called, has an open door policy and enjoys interacting with staff and students. He is extremely competitive and can be seen on sports day on the ground supporting his team. Though not the most coordinated of players, Ravi is very involved in students activities such as cricket and football competition.

Mr. Ragoonath is well known amongst his students for going above and beyond the call to provide the required support for his students so that they have all the tools they need to be successful. To the students he is a coach, a mentor and a friend. To his staff, he is creative, innovative and extremely positive.

If you would like to meet Ravi, just pass by his office and he is ready to greet you!

Academic Director

Ravi Johnson

Meet Ravi J, the Academic Director. Ravi is constantly reviewing the landscape to ensure that CTS College offers courses that are relevant to the developmental needs of the country.

Ravi is also the MBA Programme Manager and Quality Assurance Manager at CTS College. Ravi first started CTS College as a student way back in 2005 when he enrolled in one of the short courses, since then his love affair with the college began and in 2009 he won a full scholarship to pursue his BSc. in Computer Science. In 2010 Ravi started working part time at CTS College and two years after with the increasing enrolments and success of the MBA programme he officially came on board and started working full time at the college.

The self-proclaimed king of fish broth, Ravi can cook only two things, fish and broth. The secret to a good fish broth says the iron chef wannabe is using the right seasoning at the right time! His main passion outside of academics and CTS College is cricket and many consider him to be an avid cricket lover but horrible cricket player.

Ravi embodies the spirit of student support excellence and played a crucial role in the college’s success at the ACTT hosted Quality in Tertiary Education (QuiTE) award success over the years. The college has won QuiTE awards over the years and the most significant and perhaps fitting category for CTS College and Ravi was for Student Support Excellence. Ravi goes beyond the call to support his students and his greatest motivation and satisfaction is seeing his MBA students succeed in their studies and professional lives. He regards his role in CTS College as not just a job but an opportunity to contribute positively to students’ lives and to make a lasting impression in their hearts.

Ravi also has significant local and overseas training and certification in quality management, which is a crucial aspect in the field of tertiary education. He is responsible for ensuring the college’s policies, procedures and practices in quality management are compliant. The college’s continued accreditation and recognition and its success at the ACTT’s QuiTE Awards is testament to his dedication to quality management and student support excellence!

Enthusiastic about post graduate studies in General Business, Human Resource Management, Marketing Management, Logistics and Supply Chain, Entrepreneurship, Oil and Gas Management, Hospital and Health Services Management, Digital Technology Management or Finance? Then meet Ravi!

Administrative Director

Chelsea Christian

Chelsea Christian, the first female Administrative Director of CTS College, has been a part of the college since its inception. As a student, Chelsea’s leadership qualities were very evident. She was a mentor and role model, particularly to the female students. Her take-charge approach was just what the organisation needed.

Chelsea started as an Administrative Assistant and has worked her way up to her present position of Administrative Director. She’s pretty much assumed all the various positions within the Administrative Team; as such she has spearheaded numerous changes in the Administrative Team’s structure and composition.

Chelsea is extremely passionate about the College and its employees. She loves working behind the scenes to ensure that CTS College is not only a great place to study, but is also a wonderful place to work. She’s often one of the earliest to arrive and one of the last to leave.

With a creative mind, she has brought life, love and light to the organization. She is constantly working with her staff, having frequent meetings, making them feel appreciated and ensuring their voices are heard. She delights her staff on their birthdays with cute decor that highlights their various personalities. She works in tandem with Sarah (the Administration Manager) to plan staff retreats, team building exercises, the College’s famous Christmas Dinner and Sports and Family Day.

Chelsea is our prayer warrior – she fights every battle on her knees. If you need an candid opinion or biblical wisdom, ask Chelsea!
