Today we had our sessions at the building where all Associations in US Higher Education are housed.We started our day with a presentation on accreditation, then we had an Association Mini-fair where we had the chance to meet representatives from the AACRAO, AASCU, ACE, AAC&U, A-P-L-U, CEA, CGS, NAFEO, NAGAP, NAICU, NASPAA. (a message for the advisers - No, I'll not explain the acronyms here. If you do not one, I'll leave this homework for you...). After this great networking experience, we had our first round of USBT Best Practice Presentations. There were five presentations on using effective ways of using volunteers, alumni, and interns. The advisers presented many interesting ideas, and I'm already thinking how I can adapt some of them when I go back to my center.
Afterwards, we went back to the hotel, enjoyed another great lunch with our Program Officer for WHA and we also took a picture with him. In addition we made a short presentation about our centers to the group while identifying on a big world map where our center is located.
Right after we had a group discussions on Ethics in which we had the chance to analyze some case scenarios and share our thoughts on the issues involving Ethics in EducationUSA.
Before our last session, we had a break an took a official group picture.
Our last session was about USBT Effective Management Workshop and we learned and discussed about interactive activities we can use in our presentations. Throughtout the entire presentation we experience some of the activities that were mentioned. So we got to see how they work!
What another wonderful day! I'm loving it! :)
