OVER 80 students are expected to be capped at the Christian College of Southern Africa (CCOSA)’s 29th graduation ceremony scheduled for Saturday.
The graduation ceremony will be held at Heritage Village, Liberation City, in Harare.
CCOSA last held its graduation ceremony in 2024.
This year’s ceremony also coincides with the institution’s 50th anniversary.
Over the years, CCOSA has produced veteran print and broadcast journalists who have gone on to thrive in both the mainstream and digital media landscapes.
CCOSA Programmes Coordinator, Tafadzwa Sandi, said students were graduating from diploma programmes, including Journalism and Communication, and Business Administration, as well as short courses such as Radio Production and Digital Marketing, among others.
“Students from different departments will be conferred with National Certificates and Diplomas.
“As we prepare for this year’s graduation ceremony, we celebrate not only the academic achievements of our students, but also their resilience, dedication, and commitment to excellence.
“Graduation marks the beginning of a new chapter, where our graduates will apply the knowledge, skills, and values they have acquired to make meaningful contributions to their communities and professions.
“We congratulate all graduating students and express our sincere appreciation to their families, lecturers, and support staff, who have been instrumental in this journey,” he said.
Sandi said as the institution celebrates its Golden Jubilee, it was inviting former students to continue supporting CCOSA.
“As the institution marks its 50th anniversary, we proudly reflect on five decades of transforming lives through quality education and skills development.
“This Golden Jubilee is a celebration of our rich heritage, academic excellence, and the many graduates who continue to make meaningful contributions to Zimbabwe and beyond.
“We remain committed to equipping future generations with knowledge, integrity, and practical skills to meet the demands of a fast-changing world.
“We want our former students to continue supporting their institution so that the legacy endures for future generations,” he said.
