Accra: As part of its corporate social responsibility, Bemanful Consults has held a transformative career fair for final-year students of Methodist Senior High School. The event was designed to guide students on their career paths and academic futures, providing a unique platform for motivation, mentoring, and real-world insights from seasoned professionals.
According to Ghana News Agency, the event featured Miss Caroline Iko, a seasoned Human Resource expert and Certified HR professional, who discussed the challenges and opportunities students face as they approach a critical juncture in their academic and professional lives. Miss Iko emphasized the value of early and intentional career planning, encouraging students to reflect on their interests, assess their strengths, and align their goals with realistic career opportunities. “Your career journey doesn’t start after school; it starts now. Planning ahead gives you a roadmap. It helps you avoid detours and prepares you to take advantage of opportunities as they arise,” she said.
The talk addressed critical issues such as choosing the right tertiary education path, developing soft skills, understanding the job market, and the importance of adaptability in a fast-changing work environment. Students were also introduced to emerging career fields, including those shaped by technology and digital innovation.
Miss Patience Tekyi, the company’s Public Affairs representative, who spoke on behalf of Dr. Emmanuel Bempong-Manful, Chief Executive Officer of Bemanful Consults, shared the company’s core mission, values, and its wide-ranging services in consulting, training, and professional development. “At Bemanful Consults, we believe in equipping the next generation with not just hope, but tangible tools and insights for a successful future,” Miss Tekyi said.
The career fair marks the first edition of what Bemanful Consults hopes to make an annual programme. According to Miss Tekyi, the company plans to expand its outreach to more schools across the Greater Accra Region and beyond, offering similar career-building events and resources. “This is just the beginning. We want to empower as many students as possible to take charge of their futures with confidence, knowledge, and purpose,” she said.
The success of the event reinforces Bemanful Consults’ growing reputation not only as a trusted provider of business solutions but also as a socially responsible organization committed to youth empowerment and national development.
