On April 18th, 2018 the International School of Tianjin (IST) hosted its inaugural Career Fair. The school is globally recognized as an important academic institution that offers an inclusive learning system to its diverse student body, and boasts of an eclectic faculty.
This event served as a platform to provide students an opportunity to listen to guest speakers from various established professions. It was the result of months of team work and good planning, led by IST’s energetic and forward-looking Advancement and Communications team (headed by Amrita Singh & supported by Frances Tschoepel). They were in collaboration with the senior administration of the school including Director Steve Moody, Secondary Principal Michael Conway and Counseling Department’s Lee Sterling III.
We were impressed by the event results, wherein supportive parents from the school’s Parent Faculty Organization (PFO) were also very helpful in contacting potential guest speakers in the community, and a lot of staff and students contributed to make this a success.
Guest speakers provided a valuable insight as to what education and skills are needed for their chosen careers. During our participation in this event, we interviewed some of the experts to share their thoughts, struggles, and decisions in choosing a career. You can read the complete article in the cover story of this month.
