Students are euphoric and delighted to graduate among their friends and in the presence of academic staff who have been
their mentors, and parents who have been their motivators.
At every graduation ceremony, a special award – the ‘Ernst & Young Best Graduation ACCA Student Award’ is conferred on
the highest achieving ACCA Affiliate.
