Today I had the opportunity to attend a Council of Advancement and Support of Education Master Class on Social Media and Educational Advancement. This area of University Advancement is of particular interest to me and so I always seek out professional development opportunities such as this. Previous Director of CASE Asia Pacific, Krista Slade, was kind enough to link me with the right people to attend.
Ironically the keynote speaker, Andy Shaindlin, from LA was someone I heard speak a couple years ago at another CCAE conference in Kelowna, British Columbia, where he was equally as inspiring.
This summit included advancement professionals from all the major post secondary institutions throughout Singapore and was extremely worthwhile.
I look forward this year to pursuing more of these opportunities outside of my studies.
I am pursuing a Masters degree in Southeast Asian Studies from the National University of Singapore, giving keynote talks to many Rotary Clubs throughout District 3310, and being actively involved in regional community service projects as a goodwill Ambassador not only for Rotary but Northern Ontario and ultimately Canada!
Southeast Asia consists of two geographic regions: the Asian mainland and island arcs and archipelagoes to the east and southeast. The mainland section consists of Burma, Cambodia, Laos, Thailand, Vietnam and Peninsular Malaysia while the maritime section consists of Brunei, East Malaysia, East Timor, Indonesia, the Philippines, and Singapore.[1] Papua New Guinea is an observer in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations, as is East Timor.
