Promasidor Guides Students on Informed Career Choices

-

As part of efforts to ensure that students make informed career choices, Promasidor Nigeria Limited recently held its third career guidance workshop for secondary schools in Abuja tagged ‘Promasidor Harness Your Dream’.

The workshop, which held at the Junior Secondary School, Jabi, was organised for the junior secondary three (JS3) students of the host school and their colleagues from Junior Secondary School, Tudun-Wada and Junior Secondary School, Wuse, Zone I.

In his remarks, the Chairman of the Universal Basic Education Board (UBEB), Abuja, Dr. Kabiru Matazu commended the company for assisting the board to achieve its set objectives through the workshop.

He said the career guidance initiative is in line with UBEB’s order that “education for all is the responsibi­lity for all.”

Matazu, who was repre- sented by Board Member I of UBEB, Alhaji Usman Yahaya acknowledg­ed that guidance is the key that unlocks the brain of a student in achieving good results, while making the right career choice. He said through Promasidor’s Harness Your Dream, students would be able to know the steps and processes to take to attain their career objectives, which would place them in leadership and entreprene­urial positions in future. The Principal of the host school, Mrs. Aisha Bello also applauded the company’s resolve to enhance students’ perception in choosing the right profession, saying that the workshop is crucial to students at the JS3 level.

“Normally as a school, we organise career talk for our students, but this surpasses what we do because profession­als in different fields were brought to interact with them.
