In recent years, many players in Ghana's creative industry, especially musicians and filmmakers, have increasingly embraced formal education, proving that academic pursuit knows no age or career boundary.
Despite the demands of the spotlight, several of these artists are carving time to return to school, either to complete unfinished academic goals or to gain new knowledge that complements their creative journeys.
One of the latest to join this inspiring trend is celebrated kumawood actress Matilda Asare, who has successfully earned a Master's degree in Human Resources and Management (Strategy) from the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST).Her graduation took place on Friday, June 27, 2025, at the university's main campus in Kumasi.
The event was not only a celebration of academic achievement but also a moment of inspiration for many in the film industry and beyond.
