However, the conversation couldn&#8217;t continue because I was unable to raise the fees to attend the university. I was so frustrated that I started searching the internet for an alternative. I came across Alison. When I read about it, I knew that Alison could substitute for the Atlantic University.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>What was your first course on Alison, and why did you choose it?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">My first course was <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/alison.com\/tag\/human-resources\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Human Resources<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. I was working in the HR department and I knew Alison could help to better my time in that department.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>How have Alison courses affected your career?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Discovering this unique platform has changed and shaped my career. I gained great insights from the courses I took advantage of. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/alison.com\/course\/diploma-in-human-resources-hr\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With a Diploma in HR from Alison<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, I went from being a secretary in the HR department to being promoted to HR Personnel. Later that year, I was again promoted to Assistant Head of HR. The certificate in the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/alison.com\/course\/understanding-the-ebola-virus-history-treatment-and-prevention-revised\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ebola course<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> gave me influence in my community and I was able to save lives. In my country, ebola killed people but misinformation also did.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>What\u2019s your favourite way to relax from studying?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After studying, I relax by lying on my bed and listening to motivational speakers like my Pastor, Philemon A.

Maxwell, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"lazy-load-ad\" data-ad-layout=\"in-article\" data-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4877892089121284\" data-ad-slot=\"4736694275\"><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Where are you working now?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I&#8217;m currently working at the National Library and studying courses on Leadership, Library Management and Mastering Public Administration at the graduate school in my country.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>What\u2019s next for you, in terms of education or work?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What&#8217;s next for me is to complete my master&#8217;s studies, engage in more leadership training to better equip myself and start to do what I really love to do, which is to develop our nation&#8217;s next generation of leaders. Youth human capital development, this is my real work.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>If you could learn absolutely anything in the world from an Alison course, what would it be?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It would be to learn how to more effectively connect with my team &#8211; developing the ability to give constructive feedback and to seek the feedback of my team.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>What would you say to someone if they asked you about Alison? Would you recommend it and why?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes, I would recommend Alison to anyone and the reasons are simple. Education is an expensive commodity. Not everyone can afford it and everyone deserves it. Alison believes that it should be absolute free.
