I pursued this course as training available given to us was a hands-on experience, competent and knowledgeable to be able to provide a high standard of care. Becoming a nurse and the training I gained prepared me to start my career. Being a product of this University, I was recognized and awarded as one of the Outstanding Alumni last 2019 during the 100th Founding Anniversary of the University.
