More than 1990 students are eligible to graduate with certificates, diplomas, degrees and postgraduate qualifications in upcoming graduation ceremonies across UCOL's locations.

The graduands will attend events in Palmerston North, Whanganui, Wairarapa and Auckland during March and April to receive their new qualifications.

UCOL's Whanganui Graduation ceremony is at the Royal Opera House next Thursday at 12.30pm, with 419 eligible graduands.

UCOL chief executive Leeza Boyce says graduation is the highlight of the year.

"We're proud to say that UCOL has graduates from 62 different countries working all over the globe," she said.

"We trust that this year's graduates will take the experience, skills, and knowledge they've gained from their time at UCOL to make a difference in the world."

This year's graduation will include the first cohorts to complete the bachelor of applied management in Palmerston North, and the bachelor of design and arts in Whanganui.

In Whanganui, the largest group of graduates will come from the School of Technologies - which includes programmes in apiculture, hospitality, cookery, hairdressing, and beauty.

There is a great lineup of keynote speakers for the ceremonies who will impart words of wisdom and inspiration on the graduands.

The keynote speaker in Whanganui will be chief executive officer of Farmlands, Peter Reidie and after the ceremonies there will be processions along the streets to celebrate.
