Graduation Event
Jessica Marklew, Evolve Project Manager also wanted to add her congratulations.
“Although the GMG has never held a formal graduation event before, this was our most challenging course of the Evolve project, and these 11 individual really deserve the recognition for their dedication and hard work. This really is an impressive qualification to achieve, and they should be very proud of there commitment. More importantly the training they received will be really useful to them every day. ”
