The career guidance fair was successful
TESI guided me through every step of the university application process, helped my parents understand the process, and provided me with valuable career guidance & support.
I was able to learn the different pathways to the degree, including the Higher Education Access Certificate (HEAC). I am grateful for all the support extended to me during my vacation.
I had given up on education, but Emmanuel encouraged me to apply. I was admitted to Lira University, and he helped me apply for loan scheme. Luckily, I was awarded the study loan. Thank you very much.
The TESI career programme has helped me identify suitable careers. It has helped me on career choices. It has helped me develop career goals. It has helped me overcome career obstacles. And helped me identify the benefits of my career.
Through the help and guidance from TESI, I applied for Higher Education Access Certificate (HEAC) and was admitted to Muni University. Thanks to TESI, I look forward to getting more information from TESI.
I attended the Higher Education and Career Guidance Fair, and learnt so much from it. I was able to apply to two universities, and also for a scholarship. TESI is helping so many young people, and I have referred many of my friends.
Without the help of TESI, I would not have got the student loan scheme in 2023. TESI is doing a lot to support young people to get education opportunities.
