The graduation was held with the 2017 dedication service in Port Moresby yesterday.
These nine graduates were also awarded permanent positions on which they were trained on.
“More of our staff have been developed professionally with certificates, diploma, degrees and post-graduate degrees,” managing director Moses Liu said.
“We are employing more graduates every year. As we are reinventing our businesses, we are also focusing on reinventing our staff capacity and skills.”
Liu said the graduate programmme was part of their focus on training quality staff.
“NDB’s purpose is to provide quality service to our customers as without them the bank would not exist,” Liu said. “Most customers will notice how you serve them as first impressions always counts. So get it right the first time.”
