Continuous Professional Development at
BAU Training Workshop
Always loyal to its mission of investing in ‘Continuous Professional
Development’ of its establishment, the Beirut Arab University (BAU)
represented by its President Prof. A. Al Adawi and Mr. A. Abla, Deputy
Secretary- General Administrative Affairs sealed the deal with EL-Meouchy
Education Consultancy Company SARL represented by its Chair/Manager Dr.
R. El-Meouchy on 25th of July 2011 to collaboratively insure continuous
and intensive approaches to improve personal performance and enhance
career progression to both BAU academic as well as its staff members.
The initial stage of the consultation was to provide assistance to
clarify and address immediate professional competence concerns of group
members respective to their professional roles. Subsequently,
practice-based professional learning settings in the form of customized
training workshops where the group members learn from their own
professional experiences by sustaining their knowledge and skills
related to their professional lives and which are situated in relative
practices were established.
Fully aware that ‘Continuous Professional Development’ arguably ranges
from consultation, to training workshop, case study method, coaching,
community practices, lesson study, mentoring, and reflective
supervision, the first set of EL-Meouchy Education Consultancy
customized training workshops incorporating an evaluative stage on
‘Communication Strategies/ Skills” took place on September the 5th for
BAU Beirut campus and on the 9th for BAU Tripoli campus.
Presently, the ‘BAU Continuous Professional Development’ implementation
process (Personal Productivity, Performance management, Motivating
Employees, Administrative Support, Strategic thinking & Creativity,
Supervising Others, Stress & Time Management among other topics) will be
put into operation throughout the 2011-12 academic year.
May we wish both Beirut Arab University (BAU) and El-Meouchy Education
Consultancy well-deserved professional rewards....
