Ato Kebour Ghenna on the event

The event was attended by members, officials and lecturers of the A.A. University School of Commerce together with senior students. There were also other participants from Society of Human Resource Management (SHRME) and others from various professional associations.

The presentation was so interesting that participants loaded the guest speaker with so many questions. The speaker dealt with all questions as interesting as his presentation. The participants asked CGA officials to continue hosting the event with varied topics of interest so that members can refresh their understanding of current events. There were some participants who suggested that a special think tank group be formed so that our Association could contribute input to the national forum.

The day's event was followed by a reception and networking among the attendees. We hope all who attended got some insight in the topic presented. We will keep on staging such events and we encourage all our members and other professionals to come and attend them.
