ERASMUS+ ATTACHMENT : UTM TO METROPOLIA UNIV, FINLAND

https://www.metropolia.fi/en/about-us/

November last year i have applied for Erasmus+ training program to Metropolia University of Applied Sciences, Finland.

Pre-arrangement has been been well between both institution and coordinators from UTM International Office have been a great help.

i will be going with another officer, Ms Rohaizan from UTM CCIN. Never met her before so i am looking forward for this trip together so i can know her better.

Me and Ms Elina from Metropolia had a brief meeting when  she was in the country to attend APAIE 2019 recently. The date has has been confirmed — 10-14 June 2019. Flight ticket was purchased by Ms Tiina, from Metropolia International Office who is coordinating our visit, as well as our accommodation. 

I have yet to prepare any presentation slides, and the thought that i will be leaving during the fanfare of Raya celebrations may sadden me a bit but my spirit is high in anticipating the Finland adventures nevertheless!

 

PRE-WORKSHOP FOR KONVENSYEN PENTADBIR 2019

Attended a pre-workshop for Konvensyen Pentadbir 2019 which will be held in October.
