PROFESSOR Steve Smith, United Kingdom’s International Education Champion, was recently in the Philippines as part of his visit to Southeast Asia.
They agreed to do several key strands of collaborative work. These include apprenticeship and standards for vocational careers, joint tertiary transnational degrees to cater to upcoming and green industries of the Philippines, teacher training and upskilling particularly to improve remote-learning capacity as well as teaching employable skills for future industries, and education technology to improve hybrid learning.
“UK-Philippines [tie-ups in Transnational Education, Chevening scholarships, technical education and in edtech are making a real difference in the lives of Filipinos],” Ambassador Laure Beaufils said. “I am delighted with the results we are seeing, and our joint commitment to take this to the next level. This is at the heart of the strong people-to-people links between [our countries].”
His meetings included a session with the Philippine Railways Institute to discuss further support to help develop the skilled workers required to construct, operate, and maintain the future extensive Philippine rail lines. A gathering with transnational education partner-universities to discuss further potential partnerships in joint degrees also transpired.
