Emmanuel, the certified software engineer graduate

I am pleased to be among the graduating class of 2023 at Moringa School! When I joined Ngong Children’s Foundation, I attended one of their focused elementary schools, where I sat for my national primary examinations and qualified for high school.

During my time here, I developed an interest in rugby. I joined the school’s rugby team; it was a great way for me to participate in an extracurricular sport while still studying. After graduating from high school, I enrolled at Kenyatta University to pursue a degree in Mathematics and Computer Science.

I felt the need to improve my practical abilities in Software Engineering during my third year at Kenyatta University. To further this passion, I resolved to take a break from my degree program and enroll in Moringa School’s certificate course in Software Engineering. I got the opportunity to join the TechMates program as a development intern before beginning my study at Moringa. Taking my course while still interning was a fantastic experience since it allowed me to use the skills I was learning and acquire new ideas that were not always covered in class.

I finished my certificate course after 6 months of study and graduated at the top of my class on June 30th!

I am proud of myself for this achievement, and I hope to hit even greater milestones in the future. My gratitude goes out to my sponsor and the NRCF/FoNR program for believing in my abilities and helping me realize my dreams.
