Whenever one mentions the name Nicol David, we immediately think of her past achievements as a professional squash player throughout her storied career.
But aside from pursuing her dreams at the squash court, she’s also doing the same for her education, with her most recent achievement being the completion of an online course offered by the Harvard Business School.
Finished online course by Harvard Business School
Taking to Instagram to share her excitement, Nicol wrote that she had received a certificate for completing a course titled ‘Power and Influence for Positive Impact’ by Harvard Business School.
She added that she never expected that she would have the chance to study at such a prestigious educational institution as much of her professional life was spent at the squash court.
As a former athlete getting the chance to study in Harvard for this course was truly fundamental to building my confidence as a leader. All my professional life was inside a Squash court and I didn’t attend university to focus 100% in this.
“So for many years I thought I wouldn’t be able to access this form of education or even capable of. But I was wrong because this has truly been empowering,” she wrote.
Nicol added that she was able to take the course thanks to a scholarship and expressed gratitude to several individuals who had encouraged her to take the course.
“I hope this is the start of many academic achievements in this new path I’m in running my own foundation and to believing in myself to do so,” she added at the end of the post.
