Divided into five categories, the winners were selected based on individual performance during the postgraduate program and were honored with the 2022 Academic Excellence Award
It is a fact that Nepuga has invested more and more in making its Studies portal an interactive environment of continuous learning for its students. Because of this, we are in full swing for the awards for the best students of 2022.
The virtual learning environment, which has been frequently improved, has become gamified. And this project, especially for the Pedagogical team, brought a lot of pride to the Institution.
Because in addition to the whole learning process in the field of Aesthetic Health, we are a higher education institution concerned with offering the best experience, in an immersive way, so that when students complete their specialization, they take away not only technical knowledge but also a complete experience and a blended learning experience, in person, with live and remote classes.
With the evolution of teaching and also of connection tools, Nepuga seeks to always stay alert to what can improve its students' experience even more. And that is what the gamification process came to bring.
Now, at the awards stage, we are ready to recognize those who shone the brightest in the 2022 academic year.
Besides the satisfaction of finishing the specialization and becoming an aesthetics professional, the best students will be honored with an award that values each one's performance and dedication throughout their academic journey.
The 2022 Excellence Award aims to publicly recognize the merit of specialists who stood out as inspiring examples of success, encouraging all students to pursue their goals and reach a high level of performance in their academic and postgraduate journeys.
This tribute took into account important criteria such as attendance, discipline and exceptional academic performance. Valuing each specialist's effort, dedication and commitment is meant to encourage these specialists to become ever more dedicated professionals and to seek excellence in their careers.
CATEGORIES AND GOALS
There were five categories in all, ranging from classroom performance to the specialists most engaged with aesthetic health. They are: Academic Highlight Specialization, High Performance Development, Digital Influencer #lideresdesucesso, Digital Influencer #pugafollowers and Journeys That Enchant.
In the Academic Highlight Specialization category, the goal is to recognize the best specialists in our main specializations, Aesthetic Biology, Aesthetic Biomedicine, Aesthetic Nursing, Aesthetic Pharmacy and Aesthetic Health, highlighting students who excelled in their academic efforts and contributed significantly to advancing knowledge in their respective fields.
