By acquiring these skills, you have empowered yourselves to become leaders and innovators in these vibrant industries,\u201d she urged the graduates.<\/p>\n<p>The school principal, Suwaibou Fabureh, commended the graduates for their efforts and hard work towards achieving their goals.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYour certificates are not only a ticket to a good life, but they are also a ticket to change the world, particularly The Gambia, and make a difference. So, don\u2019t wait for an opportunity to knock, but build a door,\u201d Fabureh said.<\/p>\n<p>He advised them to maintain a positive attitude towards their careers, engage in learning at all times, and adapt to changes when required.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe believe and hope that you are moulded and ready to venture into your chosen career paths. It is often said, in a nation that lacks creativity in its youthful population, progress and prosperity will slow.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Guest motivational speaker Aunty Awa Saye Joof urged the graduates to be honest to earn respect and recognition in their careers.<\/p>\n<p>According to Aunty Saye, there is a need to improve the quality of vocational education to make it an effective avenue for young people to realise their career dreams and achieve social value enhancement.<\/p>\n<p>The graduation witnessed an exhibition of a fashion parade, with graduates showcasing elegance in gorgeous outfits that they made in different classy and simple designs, much to the appreciation of a cheerful audience.<\/p>\n<p>Outstanding students, including Aminata B Fatty and Abubacarr Jallow, were awarded for their outstanding performances in various categories.<\/p>\n<p>SS Institute of Creative Designs was established in 2017 by Ms Satang Saho-Jammeh, a dynamic young woman, with a special focus on empowering girls through vocational education. The institute has since grown into a vibrant centre, graduating about 500 young Gambians in tailoring, fashion design, hairdressing, and makeup tutorials.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About Gambia Follow Africa-Press<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Gambia.
