***************************************************************************
A spokesman for the EDB said today (May 24) that the Virtual Info Expo will, through a one-stop online platform, provide the latest information as well as studies and career guidance on various articulation opportunities for secondary school graduates to make good preparation and planning for further studies and career progression. Other students, parents and teachers are also welcome to join.
"Around 30 institutions and organisations will display online booths at the Virtual Info Expo to provide information on locally accredited post-secondary programmes (including programmes eligible for various government subsidy schemes as well as vocational and professional education and training programmes), the Diploma Yi Jin programmes, as well as relevant online platforms such as the Information Portal for Accredited Post-secondary Programmes, the Electronic Advance Application System for Post-secondary Programmes, the Concourse for Self-financing Post-secondary Education, and the Qualifications Framework," he added.
In addition, Hok Yau Club and the Hong Kong Federation of Youth Groups will offer studies and career guidance services.
There will also be live talks with interactive question and answer sessions on multiple pathways, preparation and strategies for articulation to post-secondary education, and experience sharing by post-secondary students. Industry and institution representatives will also provide first-hand information about various post-secondary programmes and career development.
