Automatic Admission into TIIDELab Fellowship: A Reward for Dedication and Commitment

Introduction

Excelling in whatever I do is what I do best. Just like the saying, "Anything worth doing at all is worth doing well." It's on this note that I announce that TIIDELab has offered me direct admission into the upcoming fellowship, based on my unmatched dedication and commitment to my personal development during the recently concluded Cohort 6 pre-fellowship.

Personal Experience and Achievement

Little did I know that TIIDELab rewards dedication and commitment so significantly! This means I won't need to pass through the qualifying assessment or the interview stage, which I had already started preparing for, determined to be among the 30 fellows selected. But now, all that preparation won't be necessary!

Significance of the Admission

When I was called upon to collect my certificates of completion and special recognition, I thought I was just receiving the certificates. Little did I know that they came with automatic admission into the main fellowship. This is huge for me, and I am so emotional right now. In my wildest dreams, I didn't see this coming. Perhaps the universe was trying to tell me something. I can't thank TIIDELab enough for this. A lot has happened to me in the last eight months, but this is the most surprising and fulfilling moment.

Reflection on My Journey

I recollected posting that I would be applying for the TIIDELab fellowship on LinkedIn two days ago when TIIDELab released the call for the Cohort 6 fellowship. I promised to update you all if I made it into the fellowship. Well, you won't have to wait for TIIDELab to complete the selection process because I have already secured a spot in the fellowship.

I am grateful to my teammates (KodeCrafters) for their support throughout this amazing journey. Yesterday was spectacular, and we made it together, here is the link to our project-https://text2image-khaki.vercel.app/get-started.html. I hope to see all of you in the fellowship, and for those applying from the pre-fellowship, I wish you all success in the admission process.

Acknowledgements

A special thanks to TIIDELab management for recognizing my dedication and commitment. I am grateful to TIIDELab's Program Manager, Mr. Shams, for being a source of inspiration and encouragement to many. I also appreciate TIIDELab's Resilience Program Director, Mrs. Cynthia, for her leadership style and passion.

Conclusion

Watch this space for updates on my journey during the fellowship. Let's continue to push the boundaries of innovation together!
