The document discusses the lack of adequate career guidance for students in the education system. Many students do not know their career ambitions or have a clear understanding of their talents and passions.

This can lead students to feel lost or unfulfilled in their studies. Proper career guidance and counseling is needed to help students understand themselves and explore all of their options so they can choose a career path that suits them.

Some of the guests admitted
that they did not know that their
heroes had disabilities. “I have
always admired Whoopi Gold-
berg as one of my favourite ac-
tors, but never knew that she has
a disability until today,” confessed
Mr. Munyaradzi Madambi, the
dean of students at the
University of Zimbabwe, during
his speech which was the key-
note address at the function.
Goldberg is one of the people
that featured on the twenty (20)
posters of famous people with
disabilities whose lives are testi-
monies that overcoming disability
produces endless possibilities.
Celebrities featured also
included Prudence Mabhena,
Nyasha Mharakurwa, Oscar
Pisterous, Stevie Wonder, and
Walt Disney, among many
others.

EP complements academic curriculum
University of Zimbabwe
Dean of Students Munyaradzi
Madambi commended Endless
Possibilities for equipping col-
lege and university students
with skills that complement
their academic curriculum. He
said this while addressing dele-
gates at the grand finale of the
Endless Possibilities Challenge.
Madambi highlighted that
social skills, presentation tech-
niques, personal hygiene
grooming and etiquette are
not ordinarily taught in the
classroom, but vital to the
students’ advancement outside
their current learning environ-
ments.
“What Endless Possibilities
teaches you is sometimes not
taught in your lectures. How-
ever, these things are very
important . They will enable
you to succeed when you leave
university,” he said.
The dean also expressed
his desire to see Endless Possi-
bilities grow and begin to im-
pact students from other insti-
tutions of higher learning. He
said that he was impressed
with the organisation’s initia-
tives and hoped to see them
implemented at other colleges
and universities.
Endless Possibilities cur-
rently runs training workshops,
seminars and apprenticeship
programmes for students with
disabilities from the University
of Zimbabwe, Midlands State
University and Mutare Poly-
technic College. Its future
plans are to expand into other
institutions of learning, starting
with universities and colleges.

The just ended Endless

to encourage students to over-
come their limitations and
maximize their potential.
The year 2012 brings with
it new and exciting opportuni-
ties for EP. Events lined up
include mentorship pro-
grammes and another seminar
during the first haft of the year.
Another competition is going
to be held in the second half as
per the organization’s custom.

Masendeke has said that locus
of control will be the theme of
the year and he would like
teach students to take person-
al responsibility over every
area of their lives.
Endless Possibilities is
known for its unconventional
approaches to doing things.
They seem to have mastered
the definition of insanity: doing
the same thing and expecting
different results. That’s often
the case for many organiza-
tions but not so for EP.
To equip students for the
workplace, EP held an appren-
tice competition in 2010 an a

Murove
supported
the organi-
zation by
subsidizing
their cater-
ing budget.”
