The network of specialized schools for Art, Music, Dance and Drama – Mikiel Anton Vassalli College has postponed its graduation ceremony from the traditional mid-November on the day of the inception of the College to next Scholastic year.
The Schools consulted with students expected to graduate this academic year 2020 and provided two possibilities – to have the graduation planned according to the health authorities guidelines, which would mean that family and friends would not be present for the Performance Ceremony or join next year’s graduates ceremony subject to the COVID-19 situation at the time. Most students preferred the second option.
Although the graduation ceremony will be held next scholastic year, the students who achieved a higher diploma level (MQF Level 5) in their respective subject of specialization this year, will still receive their certificate via Blockchain, thanks to the infrastructure the MAV College has in place, enabling students to have their certificate easily accessible from their IT devices online. The Blockchain certificates are being issued in the coming weeks and both the blockcert and the printed certificate will be stamped with the initial graduation date, that of November 20th, 2020.
