The UFS launches E-Engaged Scholarship Strategy

08 December 2020 | Story Dr Nitha Ramnath

The Directorate: Community Engagement will be virtually celebrating the launch of the new E-Engaged Scholarship Strategy on 10 December 2020.

Most of the face-to-face community engagement activities could not take place this year due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 global pandemic and related physical distancing restrictions. Therefore, an E-Engaged Scholarship Strategy has been developed as an adapted virtual participatory learning environment in collaboration with our community, business, and government partners. This E-Engaged Scholarship Strategy seeks to make information accessible to communities through dialogue on engaged learning, training, and research for citizens to take actively part in developing their own lives and that of their surrounding communities.

Details of the launch:

Date: 10 December 2020

Time: 16:00 (CAT)

Platform: Microsoft Teams

PwC Bloemfontein honours ‘Kovsies’

2014-10-23

Prof Jansen and Connie Hertzog, PwC partner in charge of PwC Central Region.

In 2012, PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) Bloemfontein embarked on the upgrading of its office building to accommodate a growing staff complement and to modernise its facilities. The newly renovated offices officially opened its doors to the public on 30 September 2014.

Each of the new consultation and boardrooms has its own theme and gives homage to the most prominent landmarks in Bloemfontein. The boardroom was named after the University of the Free State – ‘Kovsies’.

Prof Jonathan Jansen officially opened the venue with a ceremonial ribbon-cutting on 9 September 2014.
