UKZN did a presentation at a careers exhibition in the Umzinto Town Hall which attracted hundreds of Grade 12 learners from 29 schools in the Ugu Municipal District.
The College of Agriculture, Engineering and Science (CAES) represented UKZN which had been invited to participate in the exhibition by the Department of Education (DOE) and the Ugu District Municipality.
The youngsters were impressed with the presentation, particularly the video, and asked numerous questions about degrees offered, entrance requirements and bursary opportunities. Learners all received drawstring bags and brochures from the College.
Provincial Co-ordinator-Career Guidance and Counselling, Ms Cornelia Mcunu, said: ‘The object of the Career Guidance and Counselling Programmes is to support both educators and learners by providing resources and skills to help learners make informed career choices.
‘We appreciate the participation of UKZN in the exhibition and hope to continue engaging with them for future district exhibitions.’
