Learning is extended outside the classroom. So is the Library’s support!

The HKCGI Corporate Governance Paper Competition is organized by The Hong Kong Chartered Governance Institute (HKCGI) to promote awareness of business ethics and governance principles. In collaboration with the Department of Accountancy, our Learning Support Librarian delivered a talk in the briefing session for BBA-CGC and BBA-PA students on 30 May 2022. The sharing not only covered handy research skills but also introduced library resources on relevant subjects. Students were equipped with essential skills for kick-starting the project by selecting an interesting topic based on research results and finding useful resources to support their ideas in the paper.

Wishing all participants enjoy the learning process. Librarians are here to stand by you.
