ALUMNI ENGAGEMENT (THE RIFT VALLEY CHAPTER)
The Machakos University Alumni Relations Office had the privilege to visit and engage with the Rift Valley Region Alumni on the 20th and 21st of February 2020 in which we were very warmly received by the MAKSUAA Rift Valley Chapter members.
This alumni engagement exercise started with Alumni visits to two organisations where our Alumni are working, the first, Eldotec Consultancy Services Ltd and the second being KenHA Rift Valley Eldotec Consultancy Services Ltd
We met with Grace Wambui Maina graduate class of 2016 (B COM) working in the Research and Data (Corporate Services) Department and Violet Nelima Mwasame graduate class 2018 (B COM FINANCE) who works in the Customer Success Department.
According to the company’s Operations Manager, Jacklyne Wamoto, our alumni are hard workers with a good work ethic and they would not hesitate to employ MksU alumni from the precedence set by our two shining Alumni. Bravo!!!!!
