On completing the HNC in Civil Engineering I fought to get another promotion. I tried to get into UWI more than once to do a Civil Engineering Degree but was unsuccessful twice and wondered how to get a bachelor’s degree. Word came out that a school in South, Trinidad named School of Higher Education Ltd. (SHEL) was offering a double master’s course in Civil Engineering and Construction Management, I immediately signed up and got accepted. Within three years in trying to complete the course I also started a Degree in Construction Project Management and completed it in the same school. These courses allowed me to become a Civil Engineer after waiting more than 3 years to be certified.
