Hey TUT Fam!
The webinar was led by Esnath Hwerengwe, Founder of Top Fin, Creator of the Build Model™, and Author of Graduate with Freedom.
She shared valuable insights on how students can identify real-world problems, develop practical solutions, and use those projects to build strong professional portfolios.
A key lesson from the session was the importance of developing a value-creation mindset. Instead of asking, “Where can I find a job?” or “Who is hiring graduates?”, students were encouraged to ask, “What problem can I solve?”, “Who is experiencing this problem?”, and “How can I create value?”
The session reinforced the powerful message: “BUILD IT. SHOW IT. OWN IT.” While a qualification is important, a portfolio provides practical evidence of a graduate’s skills, creativity, initiative, and ability to solve real-world problems.
As we are still celebrating Women’s Month, we honour the strength, resilience, creativity, and achievements of women who continue to inspire change and shape the future. May we continue to empower and support women to lead, innovate, and create opportunities.
Thank you to our wonderful guest speaker for an insightful session.
