Master of Business Administration, Kaplan Business School (2020)
This scholarship has opened a world of opportunity to me. I have gained knowledge and skills that have directly enhanced my confidence and performance in my role as the leader of a not-for-profit organisation, and will continue to benefit me and the organisations I work with in the future. Thank you to Australian Scholarships Foundation and Kaplan Business School for this opportunity. These scholarships not only benefit individuals, they demonstrate support and add value to the wider not-for-profit sector and the important services they provide to our community.
