While congratulating the inductees, he urged them to open their minds to learning and strive towards excellence, entering into practice.

“Your training at CMUL has equipped you with the knowledge, skills and expertise needed to excel in the field of radiography.

“However, entering into practice as a radiographer requires ongoing learning, professional development and commitment to excellence” he said
