Father Jun said acquisition of the certificate alone is not the end of road but the impact they will make.<\/p>\n

Father Jun advised the graduating students to be resilient when they face challenges, to be creative and be of high integrity since they are coming from an institution which emphasizes Christian values.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, he advised the graduates not to wait for someone to help them but start using entrepreneurial skills they have acquired to develop their own businesses.<\/p>\n

Concurring with Father Jun, District Commissioner of Karonga Mr. Richard Hara, who was the guest of honour at the function, said the students should consider going into entrepreneurship.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are advising you to consider going into entrepreneurship so that you can help in creating jobs for the jobless. We want you to demonstrate the skills you have acquired in your companies,\u201d said Hara<\/p>\n

Most of the trades you have trained in do not require intensive capital. What is needed is to change mindset. You need to change the mentality that when you have finished school you have to be employed,\u201d added Hara.<\/p>\n

Richard Hara also hailed the school\u2019s initiative in training the youth in vocational skills, saying it is in line with government\u2019s development plans that seek to equip the youth with various skills to develop the country.<\/p>\n

In his remarks, the Director of Miracle Technical Institute, Bro Pacharo Mfune hailed the cordial relationship which exists between the college and TEVETA which dates back to 2005, when the institute was accredited.<\/p>\n
