The Higher Education & Career Guidance Fair 2023
This is an annual, virtual gathering of students, teachers, parents, activists & other stakeholders, discussing academic and non-academic issues regarding the education.
“As a teacher, it is important to prepare students to pass their UACE exams. However, I also realized that it is equally important to prepare them for higher education and world of work. Career guidance enables us transform results into skills. Above all, career guidance enables young people to achieve their dreams, and live long, meaningful, impactful lives after schooling.”
