Continue learning, graduates urged

GRADUATES must continue learning to keep themselves abreast of changing trends. Penang Education, Economic Planning, Human Resource, Science, Technology and Innovation Committee chairman Datuk Toh Kin Woon said learning was a lifelong process. “One has to keep learning to keep up with the trends of this dynamic society,” he said when presenting diploma certificates to 93 students of Equator Academy of Art during the graduation ceremony at Shangri-La Hotel in Penang on June 26. The graduates earned diplomas in graphic and multimedia design, interior design, architectural technology, fashion design technology and fine art.
