The largest group of students graduated from the MBA in Project Management pathway programme, now accredited by the Association of Project Management (APM).

"In a world that is shaped by rapid change, these skills place students at the forefront of opportunity.

"GBS Malta's support for local initiatives in education, employability and social development shows a genuine commitment to our community."

Director of Operations (Europe) for GBS Malta, Allen Lofaro said this is a momentous day for the institution.

"I'm filled with pride to see students graduating today, knowing that they will go on to have an impact both here in Malta and around the world," said Mr Lofaro.
