Works Cred­it Union (WCU) held its an­nu­al SEA and Con­tin­u­ing Bur­sary Awards Cer­e­mo­ny at Nalis in Port-of-Spain and the event has drawn much praise. The cer­e­mo­ny was de­signed to en­cour­age and re­ward stu­dents who have suc­cess­ful­ly passed their SEA and those who ex­celled dur­ing their last aca­d­e­m­ic year in sec­ondary school with an av­er­age of 75 per cent. This year's theme was Dreams are to­day's an­swers to to­mor­row's ques­tions.

In ad­di­tion, WCU grant­ed the Wil­fred Ed­ward Bur­sary to Luck­eisha Mar­sha Ol­liv­er­rie, a stu­dent of the Uni­ver­si­ty of the West In­dies, St Au­gus­tine.

A re­lease stat­ed that the WCU is com­mit­ted to the ed­u­ca­tion­al well be­ing of its mem­bers, promis­ing to con­tin­ue to sup­port its mem­bers to ful­fil their dreams and reach be­yond the stars. Ja­son Brown, a past award re­cip­i­ent, de­liv­ered the fea­ture ad­dress and told of his chal­lenges and how he over­came them by nev­er los­ing sight and fo­cus of his dreams.
