When schools request Health Profession(s) presentations or workshops, Emmanuel does it under Allied Health Series (AHS) Parts 1 to 15 which he launched in 2012. The purpose of AHS is to provide “Hands on Skills” to students interested or already in the medical/health professions as requested by schools. The presentation allows students not only to learn new skills but also to practice them thoroughly. They are presented in a very humorous and professional way which allows great interaction thus fostering mastery of skill among the students.

Invite Emmanuel to your school, company or organization and let students or professionals listen to a very strong message which will always be part of their successful journey.
