The TBSN Skilling Hub marked a real milestone this month: its first graduating class. In partnership with Mirrors Beauty School, a cohort of trainees completed a full hair and beauty training programme and walked away with certificates in hand.
The ceremony brought together graduates, trainers and the TBSN team for an afternoon of speeches, recognition and celebration, capped off with a cake reading "Congratulations Cohort One."
This is exactly what the Skilling Hub was built for: practical, hands-on training that gets entrepreneurs and young people a real trade, not just a certificate. Hair and beauty is the first programme to graduate a full cohort, and it will not be the last.
Congratulations to Cohort One. The Skilling Hub's physical home in Gayaza is still under construction, but the training programmes are already changing outcomes for the people going through them.
