The graduation ceremony was chaired by James Agada, chief technology officer of CWG. Speaking at the the graduation ceremony, James Agada, chief technology officer, said, “The world can only be ruled by people who have the selling skill, because we all have something to offer but your ability to convince others to buy is what makes the difference.
“Considering the role of ICT in the economy and its growth rate, raising human capital that can sell the value appropriately to the users becomes imperative.”
Other speakers at the event included Olapeju Ayo-Fisher, head human resources, CWG; Oladipo Raji, general manager, DCC Networks and Stephen Albert, business development manager, DCC Networks/ Coordinator, CWG Sales Academy.
