Six Nigeria College of Aviation Technology (NCAT) students have been awarded certificates after completing the British Airways’ Leaders of Tomorrow programme. The names of the students are Abimbola Caulcrick, Fajemisin Peter Adebola, Adachie Eneojo, Banigo Michael, Ubong George Itok, and Ogunranti Olaluwa.
The programme is a two-week internship included spending a week with the airline’s commercial team in Lagos and another visiting various departments from engineering to revenue management at its head office, Waterside in the United Kingdom.
It culminated with Keith Williams, British Airways’ chief executive, presenting the six undergraduate students of Nigeria College of Aviation Technology (NCAT) with global airline aviation training certificates.
Speaking during the presentation, Mr Williams said the British Airways Leaders of Tomorrow programme celebrates the aspirations of young aviation students who represent the future of aviation in Nigeria. He commended the winners for their outstanding performance during the training in Nigeria and United Kingdom.
“We embarked on the Leaders of Tomorrow initiative because we recognize how important a robust and well-run aviation sector is for any economy and particularly one with as much potential as Nigeria. We hope that the knowledge, expertise and experience we were able to pass on to these students will contribute to in some small way to the future of Nigerian aviation,” he said.
