One hundred students of the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology have benefited from digital and entrepreneurial skills.
The initiative dubbed, “Career Café”, is providing opportunities for students of Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology to harness their potential for job options.
The maiden edition of Career Café, a concept initiated by an NGO, Focus Foundation, will provide students, opportunities in skills development programmes.
According to the Head of Communication Design Department at the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology Dr. Ralitsa Diana Debrah, the hub was inspired by the Sustainable Development Goal 8 – Promote inclusive and sustainable economic growth, employment and decent work for all.
“The digital media event, focused on entrepreneurship and digital leadership and media-photography as career options for the youth.
