13th of June 2015 is a day that will linger forever in the memory of the participants of the 2015 edition of the Life After Campus Seminar held at the main Auditorium, Redeemer’s University, Ede, Osun State. Mrs. Fola Ogunsola, the founder of the foundation and the Managing Consultant of Finesse Consults Limited, Lekki, Lagos during her presentation emphasized on shadowing a professional and mentoring. She further stressed that the rate of unemployment would have reduced if graduates are ready to volunteer themselves in companies to get skills first and money later.
Mr. Kehinde Oyeleke, the Managing Director of Seedvest Group also explained the issue of professionalism in the workplace. He further stressed that the students should start adding value to themselves right from now.
Mr. Wale Ogunsola, the Managing Partner of Ogunsola & Ogunsola & Co, Ikota, Lagos made the students to realise the power of passion. He further advised the students that are currently not studying their dream course not to give up, there are professional courses to make it up. He said having a degree is not enough but an opportunity to think differently and able to solve problems.
In his own remarks, Prof. Adeyemi indulged the students to take to practice all what they have learnt from the facilitators, because that is what will distinguish them from other Nigerian graduates.
