An evening of celebration for BSA MSc graduates

Following on from their graduation event late last year, the first cohort of the BSA MSc Leadership & Management programme enjoyed a second evening of celebration, this time in central London.

Following on from their graduation event late last year, the first cohort of the BSA MSc Leadership & Management programme enjoyed a second evening of celebration, this time in central London.

The event enabled CEOs and graduates alike to mingle and celebrate in their fantastic achievement.

The programme was curated by the BSA and Loughborough University, which has substantial experience in the delivery of professional development programmes both in the financial sector and beyond.

On the evening, two additional awards were presented, the latter being voted for by the graduates themselves:

The Student's Award
Lisa Bullen, Nottingham Building Society

The BSA would like to extend its congratulations to each and every graduate on the programme.

Feedback supports that although challenging, the programme is very rewarding and is making a real difference in the graduates' day jobs.

There has already been various promotions from the graduates in the first cohort, and one Chief Executive appointment from the class.

For more information on the Masters programme, or to find out how to apply to the fourth cohort (beginning October 2019, now titled Strategic Leadership) please see the prospectus.
