SANU’S 441 GRADUATES WILL CHANGE WORLD - VICE CHANCELLOR

MANZINI – As the country gears itself for a First World Status by 2022, SANU prides itself for producing graduates who are ready to innovate and transform the world.

The Southern Africa Nazarene University (SANU) Vice Chancellor (VC) Winnie Nhlengetfwa, speaking during yesterday’s graduation ceremony attended by USA- based President Keith Newman, said the institution had created graduates with a nine-principle DNA that is badly needed by the world.
“They are ethically and morally correct, that is SANU DNA,” she said.

The VC said the graduates were Christian ambassadors with all the essential competencies expected by the Teaching Service Commission (TSC), Eswatini Nursing Council and Eswatini Medical and Dental Council together with the International Board of Education of the Church of Nazarene.

Disciplines

She said the graduates were ready to teach, minister, provide health care and deliver services anywhere in the world in accordance with prescribed professional and international standards of their respective disciplines.
“They are also ready to innovate and transform their communities,” the VC said.

Among the graduates, the VC said there were entrepreneurs and small medium enterprises (SMEs). She said this was just the beginning of good things to come.

“Africa, the future is bright,” she said.
To prove that the institution was growing, Nhlengetfwa said this year, they had unleashed a total of 441 leaders who would no doubt transform their world compared to 381 graduates in 2017 and 374 in 2016, respectively.

On another note, the VC said the institution continued to pursue its 2015-2020 strategy as approved by the Board of Governors.

Academic

She said the first of the five key performance areas were aimed at changing the academic atmosphere of teaching and learning. She said the second area focused on organisational environmental and business processes.
The teaching and learning infrastructure, financial systems, leadership and governance of the institution constitute the third, fourth and fifth strategic focus areas, respectively, she said.

The VC said all these performance measurement areas had been aligned with the International Board of Education Guidelines and national statutory requirements by the Eswatini Higher Education Council and others.
