The Future of Work - A Free Webinar
“The Future of Work “ is a theme of a free webinar organized by a group of DPU students taking a course titled Business Discussions EL334. The event is under the supervision of Asst. Prof. Dr. Janpha Thadphoothon, the course instructor. Do you know what a webinar is? A webinar is an alternative to face-to-face meetings. We would like to experiment with this Zoom meeting platform – known as ‘webinar. At the same time, students are given opportunities to present their surveys.
This is our first webinar. In addition to survey presentations of the students, we also have six speakers in the panel. The aims are to (1) discuss the new challenges for job seekers in the near future, (2) to offer advice to new graduates in particular on how to prepare themselves for the new normal, and (3) to provide a forum for the students to practice their business English skills.
The program in a video format:
Date
Monday, October 26th, 2020, Time 2.30-4.00 PM (Bangkok Time)
Rationale
We now stand on the edge of a new era that will bring change to our world. We have to adapt to changing political and environmental situations. Our webinar addresses issues of work in the future. What skills and knowledge will be required? What kinds of jobs will be available for new graduates? How best should we prepare for the new challenge? There are many issues and challenges ahead of us - everybody, not just for the soon-to-graduate students. The webinar is a timely one in terms of its theme.
