This course provided resources, up-to-date information, and career-focused skills that she could apply to many areas of her position.

The years of dedication and work were all worth it to earn her degree. Upon graduating from her programme, surrounded by loved ones, Maryanyane had this to say about finishing the programme: “It’s happiness, it’s achievement, it’s hard work, and realising what I’ve done over the years, and getting tangible results.” As for the future of Maryanyane’s career, she believes this degree will open doors to exciting new professional possibilities. “I’m already a manager, and I think it just increased opportunities for me in the management role.”
