The  most educative and inspiring event also witnessed the launch of the Ollennu Scholarship scheme; an initiative of Nii Amaa Ollennu who doubles as the CEO of La Villa Boutique Hotel and Olma Colonial Suits aimed at supporting “exceptionally brilliant but needy students” in the Institute.
 A lecturer at GIJ, Ms. Rodaline Amartey who shared copious insight on the importance of ‘First Impression’ advised participants to avoid improper dressing and maintain high level of decorum in physical appearance, speech and behavior in order to leave the first good impressions about themselves at all times.
 Meanwhile CEO of Prime Shades Limited, Miss Sheila Enuson, adding her voice to numerous calls made by different speakers during the event, urges participants to be good communicators and reporters in any field of work they found themselves. She encourages them never to give up in life on any career but to excel in life.
