The new edition of Kovsie Advice by the Advising Team in the Centre for Teaching and Learning (CTL) would like to help you get ready for the busy academic times ahead. But they would also like to dedicate this edition to helping you align your tasks and efforts with the end goal – that dream job!

In this edition, ideas and resources are shared to help you align your academic journey with your career aspirations.

We are proud of the inclusion of four Kovsie athletes in the SA Student team for the World Student Games.

At this stage, Wayde and Rynardt are participating abroad. On 12 June 2013 Wayde won his first foreign race in Dakar, Senegal, in a time of 46.45.
