A number of businesses were recognized at the workplace learning employer’s breakfast for their pivotal role in providing students with work-integrated learning opportunities.
Hosted by the Faculty of Business at Kelvin Grove in Newlands, the event was attended by various companies that contributed greatly to the triumph of the university’s Work Integrated Learning programme.
Various speakers at the event highlighted the value and impact the programme has on its various role-players.
Dean of the Faculty of Business, Prof Mzikayise Binza thanked the businesses for their constant support to CPUT, its students and their families, especially under today’s current economic climate.
He says the businesses are key stakeholders in the development of CPUT students.
“Without companies like yours the programme would not be a success,” says Prof Binza.
The morning’s events included a certificate ceremony to note the role that various companies played in the department’s Work Integrated Learning programmes. Special awards were given to companies that have had ten or more years involvement in the programmes.
