We are thrilled to announce our successful virtual exchange event, where students from University of Saskatchewan in Canada collaborated with our talented marketing students. This remarkable program, supported by Dr. Yan Kwan from the School of Business, is an integral part of our International Business course.

The aim of this initiative is to unite students from both sides of the globe and explore the realm of international business. Through interviews and insightful comparisons of various locations, our students gather valuable information on the advantages and disadvantages of different markets. Their mission is to apply cutting-edge market research and develop effective business strategies for the global arena.

We employ an array of innovative tools, such as Zoom and Flip, and online cloud platforms like Drive to effortlessly connect our students in a dynamic virtual classroom. This diverse and interactive teaching approach empowers our students to learn, grow, and explore beyond their horizons.

The journey begins with an ice-breaking session that unveils a world of possibilities. Initially, students may have felt a bit reserved, but as discussions deepened, an incredible transformation occurred. They eagerly shared their passions, daily lives, and aspirations, forming heartwarming connections and forging friendships that transcended borders. Even after the event concludes, these bonds remain strong as students continue to exchange experiences and maintain friendships.

Dr. Yan Kwan, the driving force behind this exchange, expressed pride in the students' achievements. They have not only improved their English fluency and confidence, but also gained a deep understanding of the social and cultural fabric that connects our two locations. Beyond academic pursuits, our students have embraced the joy of making new friends and fostering a vibrant atmosphere of "the closer we are, the more active we become." This experience has not only influenced their academic journey but also catalyzed their personal growth and transformation.

This virtual exchange program has instilled vital skills such as time management and cross-cultural communication in our students. Navigating time differences between locations has honed their punctuality and adaptability, preparing them for a globalized world. Collaborating confidently with international partners, has taught students the true value of teamwork, coordination, and mutual respect within a diverse group. This exchange has undeniably enriched their academic knowledge and inspired them to pursue future careers and engage in international interactions, shaping them into well-rounded global citizens. These invaluable experiences will undoubtedly serve as cherished assets as students navigate their future paths.
