LASU Graduates Signs up for Emerald Zone Graduate Development Program.

Personal Development is an individual decision. However, It is clear that we have to take steady steps to adjust to life in the new normal. It is therefore on this note that we applaud the Final Year Students & recent Graduates of Lagos State University for signing up for the Graduate Development Program organized by Emerald Zone.

Emerald Zone designed this monthly training program to empower the youths and prepare them for the workplace. The organization identified the gap in the expectation of the employer in a Talent and the level of preparedness of the fresh job seeker.

Dr. Igot Ofem, LASU Career Development Centre Coordinator said ‘Emerald Zone has been consistent in its efforts to contribute to the development of the Youths, their track record speaks for itself. Therefore, we are very comfortable to partner with them so that they can upskill our soon to be graduates & their immediate predecessors’.

The Graduate Development Program provides soft skill training that is very essential to fit in the workplace. Modules such as Personal Effectiveness, Business Eco-Systems, Ethics, etc are just a few among the areas covered.

The COO of Emerald Zone, Mr. Oladapo Akinloye is excited to have the LASU students on board ‘this is a confirmation of the value we consistently deliver, our resolve to consciously expand the base of employable youths is coming to fruition’.He further stated that the 4 weeks training program has expert practitioners as faculty that give relatable examples hence helping the participants learn clearly and understand faster.It is a platform we have developed for organizations to reach out and seek well-groomed talents that can be hired for their aptitude and attitude.

At the moment the Graduate Development Programs is Virtual and runs once a week for four weeks. Classes are intensive as it encompasses a lot of assignments and discussions. Individuals or groups are invited to reach out to @ezonelagos on Facebook & Instagram to register for the next cohort which is in November 2020 if not they can register for other months.

COMMUNITY SERVICE

August 15, 2019 in Uncategorized

Leadership comes with service.

Leaders must constantly look out for opportunities to give back to community to make a difference today and in the future. RSW 3.0 was such rare opportunity where about 350 professionals from different walks of life, volunteered 13 weekends of their time to prepare about 5000 final year students of the different tertiary institutions in Lagos, for the world of work. Thank you Gov. Ambode and SA Education of Lagos State for providing the platform.

The experience was terrific! You could practically see the transformation in the lives of the beneficial scholars. Truly ready and prepared to take on the world. Got me thinking – if we can all reach out with a little heart of service and sacrifice, we can change the narrative of the poor state of education in the country.

To all co-volunteers, was a pleasure coming with you in this journey, and to our super RSW graduates, the world of work and entrepreneurship is all laid out before you to explore. Take it on!!!

EXECUTIVE EDUCATION

As we get on our career paths and journey, one of the rare opportunities that comes along is an Executive or Business School education. The learning curve at this rung of the pyramid comes with a load of responsibility. Business School education is not only about the awards conferred, but the clarion call to step out and change the narrative to make business, community, society and nationhood much effective than you met it. It is getting beyond the ordinary. Thank you LBS for providing a world-class standard of education. Thank you Peter Amangbo for the charge and code of business conduct. We pledge to make a difference. So help me God!
