The School of Business, in collaboration with LinkedIn Learning and the University Library, has introduced “Go! BUer Learning”, a self e-learning programme designed to unlock the full potential of Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) students. The programme will empower students to cultivate self-learning skills and habits that support their lifelong developments in the ever-changing business landscape. Completion of e-learning requirements is mandatory for BBA students prior to graduation.

To kick-off this initiative, a launch ceremony cum forum was held on campus on 12 September, with nearly 200 participants. Professor Cheng Yuk-shing, Interim Dean of the School of Business, delivered the welcome remarks and officiated at the ceremony. The ceremony was followed by a forum titled “Unleashing the Power of Learner Autonomy”. The event also featured seminars and information sessions to equip students with strategies to navigate the LinkedIn Learning platform effectively and ace both e-learning and job hunting endeavours.
