GERTRUDE ASANTE

 “Who is Gertrude Asante?....Who’s Trudey?”

I’m a 3rd year Business Management & Marketing student. I believe I will be a good & creative VP for Business & Law. I am the President of ACS 2017/18 & Secretary of the Netball club 2017/18. Through the insights & transferable skills gained of these positions, alongside the knowledge gained through education, I know I can deliver!   

As a VP I am confident that I will….

  • Be a great team player & leader to help bring a positive change to UEL!
  • Be part of a reliable and energetic Students’ Union.
  • Represent all the students from different backgrounds & to increase the unity between the diverse student bodies in the university.
  • Ensure that every student has access to the support their needs in order to make their time at UEL as pleasant as possible & memorable as possible; also to aid in supporting career paths in relation to your degree course, due to the lack of student awareness to open opportunities such as internships.
  • Endeavour to be proactive with students at every given opportunity and initiate an open door policy.
  • Represent matters concerning students’ education in terms of the Professional Services available to them such as industry specific networking events or excursions.
  • Encourage students to join societies & support student societies to develop their interests further, making sure that each society are given equal opportunities.
  • Introduce new local businesses to expand a variety of catering/food options where possible. As a current student, I understand the struggles of not having your dietary needs met & having a balanced diet at an affordable price.

 

I am an open-minded, charismatic individual with great ambitions to serve UEL in the year ahead.

Vote Gertrude Asante for VP!!
