“We have prepared them with good knowledge in the classroom, good skills, practices and good exposure through internships from best placements which fit their programs”
He adds, “We have also did a special workshop for our graduands called total graduate where we taught them such skills like how to write cv, how to dress up, how to appear in the interview, mingling with people, how to crack a deal, stress management at work and how to be spiritual, so we prepared them for all of this”
Peggy Nabunya one of the graduands told www.mknewslink.com that she is feeling great.
“It’s been a long time coming. I’m excited for life after school” Nabunya says
She adds that “It’s been such a pool of opportunities, networking and so many learning experiences. I’ve grown academically but also in other aspects of life like leadership as I am the former guild president”
Nabunya further commended Victoria University for ensuring that its students are exposed and allowing open door policy where students easily access the administration.
“The difference with Victoria University is that it provides great internship opportunities, positions us in such a way that we’re exposed to so many experiences that prepare us for life after education. Also we have easy access to all our administrators and lecturers. They’re so welcoming, caring and they put us first”
The former guild president also noted that she is now ready to join her career after completing her course.
“I am so ready for my career. Aside from academics, the university provides us with workshops that further prepare us for our careers. We are taught how to present ourselves, think on our toes and just to be excellent”
“I advise fellow graduands to go out and not forget all that they’ve learnt from VU. For prospective students, I’d want them to know that they’d be making the right decision to join VU. I’d also advise them to capitalize fully on all the opportunities VU provides because they are so worth it”.
The university will also use the same occasion to recognize the foundation students who have undergone one year course at the university.
