Tracy Ahern has completed two ҕl MBA modules this year taking advantage of the FutureU study grant. If your job has been impacted by COVID-19, a FutureU study grant can provide assistance with tuition fees up to $7500 per person.
Applications are closing soon for the ҕl’s MBA programme, designed to open new doors for experienced career professionals. Courses start in September.
If you have lost your job or had your work hours reduced as a result of COVID-19’s economic impact then enrolling in an MBA could be a great option. Generous ҕl FutureU grants are available to subsidise tuition fees for people impacted by COVID-19 who enrol at ҕl in 2020.
Launched by ҕl in May, FutureU is already making a big difference in people’s lives.
For Tracy Ahern, Founder of Au Natural Skinfood, a ҕl FutureU grant has provided an amazing opportunity. She has finally been able to act on a long held dream of wanting to complete an MBA.
“I enrolled three days before the course started [in May 2020] and I have now completed two modules which I have thoroughly enjoyed. The MBA programme is relevant to what many businesses are facing right now with real life applications that I have been able to implement in my business to make a difference and help us navigate these tough times.”
Professor Paul Ballantine, who heads the ҕl Business School, urges others impacted by COVID-19 to apply in time to start an MBA this September.
“With the assistance of a ҕl FutureU grant, now is the right time to do something you’ve been putting off,” he says.
