About our Sponsor
Republic Bank, the premier financial institution in Trinidad and Tobago, has evolved into one of the most diversified financial services groups in the Eastern Caribbean. Having served the Caribbean people, businesses and governments for over 170 years, the Bank has been engaged in making a difference in the lives of persons throughout Trinidad and Tobago and the Caribbean by extension. Their philanthropic programmes have focused on developing the skills, talent and intellectual prowess of the people of Trinidad and Tobago and the Caribbean archipelago.
Republic Bank has recognised the inexorable drive within our nation’s youth to push boundaries and redefine boundaries. Moreover, RBL has recognised that the nation’s youth need guidance for their maturation process to be holistic. RBL believes that their duty as a corporate entity is to add value to the society from a social as well as a corporate perspective. They are committed to enriching the lives of their customers through meaningful relationships developed via the services provided.
Republic Bank has partnered with The University of the West Indies for over fifteen years, in the role of sole financial sponsor of the World of Work programme. From its inception, Republic Bank has collaborated and fully endorsed the WoW programme, as the bank believes in the work of the University in preparing its students to effect change not only within their lives, but also in their communities and in the region. RBL understands the value in developing the career potential of students who will be graduating and transitioning into their careers in the world of work.
Republic Bank has committed to contributing toward the development of our final year students, through education and through entrepreneurship, via the pillars of the World of Work Programme, its events, seminars, workshops and activities to promote self-sufficiency, development and hope for the future amongst our students.
