North-West University (NWU) student Obriel Takunda Maposa recently added another Golden Key International Honour Society award to his list.
He was announced one of three South African winners of the society’s Professional Development Award.
Last year he also secured first prize for the Golden Key Ubuntu Scholarship Programme worth R30 000.
The Professional Development Awards, which include a scholarship of $750 USD each, aims to subsidise and showcase Golden Key members in support of their lifelong journey with the prestigious society.
Obriel, who is currently serving as president of the Golden Key Mahikeng Campus chapter, says he is honoured to be chosen from many excellent candidates from the various chapters.
“During the height of the Covid-19 pandemic I dedicated most of my time to completing online professional development courses. This award will allow me to continue investing my time in this space,” he says.
“I would like to share this award with all the applicants who also managed to focus on professional development during this difficult time – you are all stars and winners.”
