“I am a twenty-eight year old man, born to a family of two – a boy and a girl. I was the first born. I lost my mother before I started primary school and my father abandoned us when I was seven years old. I started living with my grandmother, my mother’s mother, and my uncle decided to send me to school. He died when I was in grade seven. There is a lot to tell about me but to cut a long story short, I have done a lot to make sure that, despite hardships, I could get an education, though this path has never been easy. I started studying at the Daughters of Mary Immaculate – St Eugene University, majoring in Science. However, in fourth year I dropped out as I no longer had the finances. But instead of just sitting back, I decided to start studying with Alison. This and other stories are what makes me as Isaac Kaputula.”<\/span><\/p>\n

How did you learn about Alison?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I am always online and, one day, I was searching for schools where I could study online in my own time and at an affordable price. I saw an advertisement pop up showing me a place that I could study online for free and I started the programme but then realised there was no certification. So I started looking again for a place that would certify me so that I would be able to find a job. Eventually, I saw an advertisement to study online for free with Alison and I signed up. That\u2019s how I heard about Alison.<\/span><\/p>\n

What was your first course on Alison, and why did you choose it?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Diploma in Marketing<\/span><\/a>. I chose this course because I wanted to gain quality experience as well as being able to compete well in finding a job that would require me to have marketing qualifications.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

How have Alison courses affected your career?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

After getting my diploma, I am able to compete with other graduates in my country, even though some of them went to high class universities.<\/span><\/p>\n

What\u2019s your favourite way to relax from studying?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I love to visit different places, read books, play chess and meet new people.<\/span><\/p>\n

Where are you working and what are you studying now?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I have just started working in Administration for Mafundzalo Ranch Company Ltd and I am also studying <\/span>Information Technology<\/span><\/a> with Alison.<\/span><\/p>\n

What\u2019s next for you, in terms of education or work?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I’m hoping to do my master’s in Marketing.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you could learn absolutely anything in the world from an Alison course, what would it be?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

How to be practical.<\/span><\/p>\n

What would you say to someone if they asked you about Alison? Would you recommend it and why?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

I would advise them to start studying at Alison to get the qualification they need. I always recommend, and will forever recommend, Alison. Alison gives opportunities to all the people who need education in their lives, inexpensively and flexibly.<\/span><\/p>\n
