Akwa Ibom State Government has organised a masterclass for assistant directors in the employment of the government. The masterclass, which focused on Writing, Protocol and Public Affairs Management, held on Tuesday, in the conference room of the Ministry of Information and Strategy, according to a statement by the ministry.
A renowned communication consultant and lecturer in the Department of Mass Communication in the Akwa Ibom State Polytechnic, Ikot Osurua, Dr. Udeme Nana, was the resource person.
“The future of the ministry rests in your hands as assistant directors; therefore, it has become expedient to sharpen your skills and keep you updated with the rudiments of your daily official routines of writing, discharge government protocol functions and managing public affairs for government,” the commissioner emphasised.
The masterclass, with seven modules, focused on: Principles of Clear Writing; the Science Behind Good Writing; the Role Perception of Public Affairs/Perception Management; Protocol and Self Management Strategies and Effective Public Affairs Management, among others. A physically-challenged elated beneficiary, Moses Umo, who is a 300-level Bio-Chemistry student of the University of Uyo, while speaking on behalf of his colleagues, said the gesture had saved some of them from dropping out of school.
