The period of 2021 to 2025 presents both challenges and opportunities for growth, innovation and rethinking our processes. We believe it will be a season of integrating key trends in our curriculum, in response to global challenges in the context of the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) to address National Development Goals (NDGs) and well United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UNSDGs).
