Stepping out the COVID-19 pandemic and celebrating the powerful partnership among HEIs during the year of recovery, ITS invited all respected partners of ITS to the 2023 International Partnership Day.
Through IPD, we aspire to learn and share about the global engagement’s best practices & trends from our partners post-pandemic through a discussion session which could also be a platform to start a new collaboration between the invited institutions.
More importantly, raising the theme of “Greater Impact through Stronger Collaboration”, ITS proudly presented the Distinguished Partners Awards to reminisce our valuable collaboration in 2022.
