TESTIMONIALS

7Department of State Development

“I feel that I am now

capable of communicating

with professionals. Before

this experience I felt very

insecure.”

“One of the key

learnings I will take

away from this

program is how to

approach a problem

with the application of

critical thinking.”

8Department of State Development

“I was able to work

collaboratively with the clients

and mobilised our team. My

leadership skills were honed

courtesy of working with team

members with varied skills.”

“I have met some successful

professionals and some of

them are willing to be my

referees.”

professionally-managed and the work ethic and enthusiasm

of the students have been outstanding.”
