Step Up Business School and a group of alumni delivered a heartfelt surprise today, celebrating Mr. Emmanuel Amissah Forson with an impromptu birthday visit to his office. The gesture recognized his consistent, selfless service to the school community.

Since August 2025, Emmanuel has been the driving force behind the PMP Candidates for Success page, spearheading discussions, mentoring aspiring project managers, and creating a space where candidates can share resources and encouragement. His steady presence has turned the page into a hub for alumni and current students preparing for certification and career growth.

Today’s visit was organized quietly by school leadership and alumni who have benefited from his guidance. Colleagues arrived at his office with messages of appreciation, catching him completely off guard. The moment reflected not just a birthday celebration, but a collective “thank you” for the hours he has poured into others’ success.

For Step Up Business School, Emmanuel’s work embodies the institution’s values: community, mentorship, and paying it forward. The alumni in attendance spoke about how his discussion prompts and one-on-one encouragement helped them stay accountable through their PMP journey. Several credited him directly for their exam confidence.

The surprise visit stands as a testament to the impact one person can have when they commit to serving others. As the school continues to grow its alumni network, Emmanuel’s example shows how leadership doesn’t always come with a title — sometimes it looks like showing up, week after week, to make sure no one studies alone.

Happy Birthday, Emmanuel. Your selfless service has not gone unnoticed, and today the school you serve took a moment to serve you back.
