Topics that were covered to familiarise the learners with the adult world were:

  • Social Media
  • Absa@ Work
  • Marketing, including corporate image
  • Fashion show and discussion
  • A day in the life of a high-flying business woman

The learners then also met Absa employees in a job-shadowing excercise

Afterwards, the girls had to give feedback about their experience.

  • Some of the feedback about what they enjoyed most:
  • "You need to have a good relationship with people you meet"
  • "We enjoyed being treated like queens for a day"
  • "We learned about other people's work"
  • "I enjoyed shadowing the BAsa employees the most"
  • "Corporate image and fashion show and people talking about their careers"
