J’Nai, he’s one of our own – as the song goes. We know J’Nai as an essential part of TIP’s finance team, but he’s also an important member of the Bermuda international football squad, playing a key role in their World Cup qualifier matches against Cayman Islands and Cuba recently ! When his opportunity came, J’Nai put in a solid performance, doing his bit to help the team win both matches to finish second in their group and advance to the next round to be played in September. It was an experience that he’ll never forget.

As reported in April, all 14 students from the second TIP Mechanic Academy group graduated, with each now progressing into the next phase of their careers, including working toward further qualifications.
