"Unparalleled
on-line learning journey in UIU" Tim said
My name is
Tim LI and it is my pleasure to share my unparalleled on-line
learning journey in UIU with you. I warn myself I should not
exaggerate the good or minimize the bad, if there is any. The
best way is I share with you my genuine feelings and experience
In the nutshell, I had a very satisfying and
rewarding encounter with UIU for the past two years. I experienced
PEACE during my learning with UIU. What does that mean? I don’t
mean the outward peace like the world peace. But the inward peace.
That means same as I did, you can be rest assured you will enjoy
peace of mind and comfort after you choose to continue your studies
and education with UIU. More importantly, can I ask you to focus
on each letter of the word PEACE – i.e. P, E, A, C and E?
P
means Professional. In my past two years, I was all surrounded by professional instructors who come
from different countries with different races and cultural
backgrounds. Some of them are experienced entrepreneur and
some come from prestigious educational institutions. I am
most grateful of their dedication, commitment and timely
support. Their determination to overcome the cross-cultural
and geographical barriers in order to provide quality on-line
education are most impressive to me.
E
means Enlightenment, in my journey of pursuit knowledge via the online program, I was enlightened
by the opinions, feedback and on-line discussions of the
instructors. Through these invaluable exposure, increasingly
I gain wider and deeper perceptive in different aspects such
as managerial decision-making, interpersonal skills at work
and continuous improvement through research, just to name
a few........ .
A
means Acquiring: sound and practical knowledge. It is the natural outcome of the aforesaid that
I acquired ........... knowledge ........and it transcends
to wisdom in my life finally, I believe.
C
means Connection. It came as a surprise to me that a substantial percentage of my classmates
came from the Mainland and Taiwan. It provided a golden opportunity
to interact with other Chinese intellects in other Chinese
communities who are very likely to be our potential business
associates. Furthermore, I appreciate the mandatory study
group assignment, which provided chances for me to interact
with other members of the group and networking with them
during and after the course. I can tell you proudly that
though the course is finished, we are now still good friends
and are still maintaining close contacts. We provide advice
and support for each other when we face challenging situation
at work. I deeply cherish this kind of connection otherwise
I don’t have if I never enrolled this MBA course.
E
means as you all guess correctly -- Excellence. Blessed by all the abovementioned essentials, I found myself beginning to excel
-- not only academically but also in my working environment
surpassed my working counterparts and, with increasing frequency,
my boss.
I am confident that your experience with UIU will be at least the same
as mine if no better. You will enjoy all the P, E, A, C, E and so ultimately
peace of mind that you have made the right choice to enroll into the
right university with the expectation of all the benefits of the quality
education UIU provides for you for the years to come.
So, our dear new counterparts, let’s get ready
for the unparalleled on-line learning journey. Thank you.
