WUAS Staff Dominate PGCert Learning & Teaching at University of Brighton Awards

It was a proud moment on Friday when students and staff graduated at the University of Brighton's 2019 Winter Graduation Ceremony.

MSc students from Wittenborg's joint programmes with the University of Brighton (UoB) received their diplomas at UoB's 2019 Winter Graduation Ceremony in the UK on Friday.

Six of Wittenborg's lecturers also graduated after completing their Postrgraduate Certificate in Learning and Teaching in Higher Education after more than a year of hard work. WUAS staff represented the majority of graduates from across the UK university's awards this winter.

The group was supported by Wittenborg's President & Executive Board Chair, Peter Birdsall, and the Vice-President Academic Affairs, Prof. Dr. Ron Tuninga.

The keynote speaker at the event was Sonia Cargan, Chief Diversity Officer at American Express UK and alumna of the university, who passed on this advice to students: "Your uniqueness is your greatest asset. Don't let others define your limits, define them for yourself."

The group of teachers who completed their PGCert programme are lecturers George Bosire (who attained top marks), Gilbert Silvius, Lucy Omwoha, Adeyemi Banjo, Bert Meeuwsen, Fjorentina Muco, Myra Qiu and Dr Rauf Abdul.
