All comprising final year students that declared an interest in taking part of the mentorship program to gain the necessary skills that would prepare them adequately for the job market they were about to immerse themselves in.

Jubilee Holdings organized an astute team made up of CEO'S and Department Heads, rich in experience and knowledge that would take the students through the various sessions organized for the mentorship program. Some of the sessions would inform the students on possible career choices in the Insurance industry, personal branding, emerging trends in the industry, building a successful career journey while others informed the students on the available opportunities at the Jubilee Group.
