Students Summit 2021

On November 20, 2021; we held our  2021 Students’ Summit, where we talked about college preparation, career guide, volunteering, mentorship opportunities, scholarships and more.

WHAT’S NEXT AFTER SECONDARY SCHOOL?

This virtual summit is open to students in senior secondary school, those that have completed secondary school and awaiting admission, and those who are currently in a college and hoping to change to another program or school.

The last students’ summit was held on  November 20, 2021. Join our monthly connect for more mentorship opportunities. 

Learn more about our programs and stay connected for the opportunity to meet up with our mentors, coaches and other students.

Education is the great “equalizer,” it opens the door to jobs, resources, and skills that you and your family need to not just survive, but thrive. When you get a quality higher education, you begin to break away from the cycle of poverty. 

So many students are stuck after completing their secondary school education, and this affects their career outcomes and livelihood. 

We are here to help.

Join our Students’ Summit and learn about college preparation, admission tips, scholarship opportunities, jobs opportunities, and more –  while waiting for admission.
