International Vocational College Malta, St Julian’s, recently held its first graduation ceremony at the IVC theatre. Students graduated in the Diploma in Enterprise and entre­preneurship and the Jamie Oli­ver Home Cooking Course Level 3.

The diploma syllabus covered a wide range of subjects such as busi­ness in an international context, financial and business plan­ning, market research, pre­sentation, lea­dership and team­­work, branding, e-mar­keting, and legislation.

Each graduating student pre­pared a video demonstrating their busi­ness idea and how it would survive as a trading concern.

The diploma certificates were presented by Vassallo Group chairman Naz­zareno Vassallo and Btec representative Eddie Connor.

The diploma qualification is a three-term, one-year course equi­valent to Level 3 Edexcel Btec and Level 4 of the Malta Quali­fications Framework, and is equivalent to an A-level. It is mainly aimed at 17- to 20-year olds.

The students gain not only a qualification but also hands-on work experience through a series of placements in the Vassallo Group and its diverse trading activities.

The college will hold an open day on July 17 at 7 p.m. at its premises in Mensija Street, St Julian’s, for re­gistrations for next years’ Diploma in Enterprise and Entrepreneurship.
