Speaking at the end of the presentation, Lecturer Keesha Carty said that she was extremely proud of the students’ performance and encouraged other managers, employers and employees to take advantage of the opportunity being provided by the UWI Open Campus to hone their skills and awareness of the law in relation to their businesses or business relationships.
