U21Global celebrates its graduating students
U21Global, the world’s premier online Graduate School, announced its second cohort of graduates today. A special ceremony was held in Singapore to mark the graduation of 192 students, an increase of more than 100 over the previous year. The graduating class consists of working executives from 22 countries including Australia, Canada, India, Malaysia, Thailand, the United Arab Emirates, Korea, China, Hong Kong, USA and Singapore.
Speaking at the graduation ceremony, Professor Sir Colin Campbell, Chairman of the U21Global Board and President and Vice-Chancellor of The University of Nottingham said, “It gives me great pleasure to congratulate this year’s graduating class. At U21Global, we take pride in our reputation as pioneers in providing the highest quality of education in an online environment and the fact that our programmes are quality assured by leading international universities. We are confident that the education that has been provided towards this degree will allow our graduating students to surge ahead in their careers.”
At the ceremony, U21Global presented the Academic Excellence Award, an award that recognises Master degree graduates who not only achieved academic excellence but demonstrated high standards of social responsibility and ethics throughout their degree. This year five students were chosen from the graduating class to receive the award.
One of the graduating student, Imran Vohra, Product Manager at DA-Desk, Hamriya Free Zone Sharjah, UAE said, “My aim in doing the MBA programme was to make it easier for me to climb the corporate ladder from middle management to senior management, and I can see I am getting there. It has been worth the time and effort invested in getting my MBA at U21Global.”
Another graduate Stephen Pearce, Training Manager, Dubai, UAE added, “U21Global has surpassed my expectations of what an online degree entails. Without the flexibility, structure and ease of learning of the course materials I would not have been able to complete my MBA. I can also feel that my outlook on future employment is a lot more positive than it was two years ago and I am very much looking forward to utilising my newly learned skills by means of imparting my now comprehensive and up to date business knowledge on peers, colleagues and senior management alike.”
“This is indeed a momentous occasion and it gives me immense honour to congratulate all our graduates on their academic accomplishments. I take this opportunity to also wish them success in their chosen fields and personal pursuits,” said Nick Hutton, Chief Executive Officer, U21Global.
