FS School of Nursing salutes its students
2008-08-28

 

The Free State School of Nursing (FSSON) in conjunction with the Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) Centre at the University of the Free State and the Department of Health recently held a Celebration Day to celebrate the role that RPL has played in the lives of students that gained admission in the four year diploma at the FSSON. The FSSON, the RPL Centre and the Department of Health took the initiative to develop an alternative learning/admission route for adults through recognition of prior learning in 2004. From 2005 to 2008 several adults gained access to the FSSON through an assessment of their prior learning and was granted the opportunity to develop themselves. At the celebration ceremony to salute different stakeholders and students for the progress they have made were, from the left: Mr Ben Mochwaro (Rector: Free State School of Nursing) and Prof. Letticia Moja (Dean: Faculty of Health Sciences, UFS).
