"Before the training, I doubted my communication skills and often struggled to find the right words, especially in English. Now, I speak with clarity and confidence. I’ve seen my growth, and my mindset has shifted from fear to progress."
“The training was fun, interactive, and built my confidence. I loved the holistic approach from communication skills to personal growth. The mock calls and interviews helped me improve through real feedback from coaches.”
"I was a stay-at-home mom with no formal work experience. When I learned about the training through Grab, I took a chance. I started shy and unsure, but over time, I gained confidence, improved my communication skills, and embraced a growth mindset. "
“Juggling work, school, and training wasn’t easy, especially without the right tools, but I knew I had to push through for my family. ACED-BagoSphere gave me the chance to rise above my struggles and believe in my own potential."
