Testimonials
Dr. Ibukun Aberjirinde

2019 LYP Scholarship Recipient
LYP Program was the perfect blend of energy, motivation and insight that I needed as a Canadian newcomer who was concerned about transitioning my career from a rewarding trajectory into the unknown. Not only did the program meet my expectations, it superseded them!
At the end of day two, I felt more confident about communicating my professional brand with clarity, confidence and consistency. I was armed with information on how to chart a strategic career path in Canada and globally, and the doors were wide open to a lifelong network of women living their potential. I am personally grateful for the gift of learning from the experiences of other women in the cohort from diverse professional backgrounds. LYP is now part of my Canadian success story and I will certainly pay the investment forward.
