GRADUATION
If you are preparing to take your life to the next level by graduating it is your responsibility to contact
your AOC for graduation details. You also need to check with your AOC that he or she has a certified copy
of your ID or Passport and your NSC or equivalent. In the event that you are eligible for graduation, you
will receive a graduation pack which will include your invite to graduation as well as details about your
graduation attire, photographs etc.
