On April 8, a seminar with the theme “EDUCATION IN THE INTEGRATION ERA” was held at the Innovation Workshop (WS4) organized by the partner school. A series of presentations and discussions were integrated into the said delegation together with TVU’s MAEd students, TVU administrators, staff, and faculties.

On the same day, there was also the signing of two memoranda: one for the creation of the Asian Research Network together with Dr. Chau Thi Hoang Hoa and another for a cooperative venture entitled, “Development of CPU/TVU Native Chicken Breed as a Response to the Needs of Raisers and Requirements of the Market” together with Dr. Evelyn Grace Ayson.
