Happy holidays from the Education team! | As the year draws to a close, we want to thank you for your unwavering commitment and partnership. This year we held the first UK Alumni Soiree which brought together Filipino graduates from UK institutions, we launched the country’s first Study UK Alumni Awards, we spotlighted the transnational education in the Philippines in one of the sessions at the Going Global 2023 conference in Edinburgh, and many other endeavours that build trust and international opportunities. We look forward to bigger things in 2024 as we scale up our TNE initiatives, open research and innovation opportunities, celebrate the outstanding achievements of UK alumni and widen our engagement with new and existing education partners. Cheers and happy holidays! #EducationConnectsUs |
