IMIS – Graduate Diploma has the following criteria for awarding medals:

“Medal awards for the Graduate Diploma are awarded to students who satisfactorily meet the assessment requirements and complete the entire course at one examination session, or who complete the course over more than one examination session but have no fails en-route and on the following basis: Gold, Silver and Bronze medals are awarded to students gaining the three highest marks in the world in the final Graduate Diploma award”.

A NDOLA based ZAMBIAN named DANNY MUMBA won a SILVER medal in the June 2005 examinations and obtained full membership of The Institute for the Management of Information Systems (IMIS).

When asked what the secret of his success was, Danny said the following:

“The road to obtaining the second best overall results in the world was not easy at all. It took a lot of hard work, determination and sacrifice.

The first hurdle came when I was told that Copperbelt University could not accept me as they only accept full time students. I had to convince them to let me only be attending lessons on Saturdays from 09:00 hours to 12:00 hours. My other colleagues who were doing the same programme were attending classes from Monday to Friday and from 08:00 hours to 17:00 hours. This was a big disadvantage on my part, but I feel it also motivated me to work much harder.

As if that was enough, I had to travel over 60 kilometers to attend classes in Kitwe and another 60 Kilometers back to Ndola. Every time, I traveled that long journey all I thought about was doing the best I could and I believe that is what led me to the SILVER.

The secret for success is to begin with the end in mind. Know what you want to achieve first before you begin doing anything. Then plan your work and work your plan. Do not start anything you cannot finish, but always start something”.

When asked to give advice to others, “MAGICMAN” said the following:

“My advice to everyone is to believe, really believe you can succeed and you will. You cannot achieve anything without first believing you can succeed. And please watch you thoughts. Every person is a product of his/her own thoughts. What you think is what you are. Think success, not failure. Think positive, not negative. Think big no matter what the circumstances”.
