On 16th July 2025, Senior Lecturer Asif Abdulla conducted a Career Guidance Session for school leavers from Laamu Isdhoo School and Laamu Kalaidhoo School, aimed at supporting students in making informed decisions about their future education and career pathways.

The session provided information on higher education opportunities, vocational and technical education, scholarships, and employment prospects. Students were encouraged to explore their interests, strengths, and career aspirations while developing skills in goal setting, decision-making, and career planning.
