MTC Graduation - Nelson Etienne clinches Outstanding Student Award |26 February 2015



Nelson Etienne clinched the Outstanding Student Award (President’s Cup) during the Maritime Training Centre’s (MTC) graduation ceremony held yesterday at the International Conference Centre.

Nelson graduated with an Advanced Certificate in Navigation and Seamanship.
President James Michel presented Nelson with his cup and a laptop computer.

The ceremony, the first post-secondary  graduation to be organised this year for 2014 cohorts, was also attended by Vice-President Danny Faure, several ministers, parents of the graduates, among other distinguished guests.

Nelson, who started on apprenticeship courses, persevered in his studies and applied for the advanced course at the MTC.
His aim is to continue to work hard to prove himself so as to obtain a scholarship in advanced navigation.

“I was not expecting to win any prize today but I am really happy and proud of myself and I wish to express my gratitude to all those who have encouraged and helped me,” said the young man in the presence of his proud father Mark Etienne.
