“Relocating to Canada was the most challenging decision I and my family had to make, the uncertainties of a new country. I was determined that I won't risk everything to start earning minimum wage. I took my PMP training with Piston & Fusion, earned my certification at the first attempt, and to be honest it has elevated my career trajectory”

"The firm I worked with in Abuja had not paid salaries for 5 months, I decided to leave the country, and left for Dubai. I applied for a safety officer vacancy, out of 15 applicants I was the only person that was selected with HSE level 1, 2 and 3 certificate. I thought getting a job here would be difficult but my certificate helped me."
