In a small ceremony held to celebrate the participants’ accomplishments, UWI certificates were handed out to the graduands.

Director Jaunai opened the ceremony by congratulating the graduands on their performances and announcing the key reasons for the organisation’s investment. She said: “It is a demonstration of our commitment to the development of our most important human resource. It is also a vehicle through which the organisation could realize its strategic objectives of cultivating the most competent middle management cadre in the south of the island and producing middle managers who are responsive, empowered, efficient and effective.”

Class representative, Lester Cazaubon, closed the ceremony, by thanking the organisation for its investment in the intellectual capital of the supervisors and assuring the audience that empowering the supervisory component of the company’s administration would increase the company’s viability as an NGO in St. Lucia.
