252 students graduated from the School of Education at the University of Namibia (UNAM) in Windhoek.

The graduates received diplomas and degrees in lifelong learning, community education, educational management and leadership, and junior primary education.

The graduates were encouraged to be job creators instead of job seekers.

UNAM's Acting Chancellor, Professor Frednard Gideon, urged the graduates to help solve challenges such as factors that prevent children from accessing quality education, poverty, gender disparity, and disability.

The University of Namibia (UNAM) management has dismissed a report in a local newspaper, which states that some of its programmes have failed the accreditation process.

The Pro Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs, Professor Frednard Gideon says UNAM had put out 83 programmes for accreditation to the National Council of Higher Education.

He explains that the council approved 63 programmes while advising some recommendations for the remaining 17 programmes.
