I had
tremendous and an interesting experience with Atlantic International
University. My desire was to reach poor and vulnerable communities in the West
African Sub region equipping them with the necessary skills I have acquired to
help them develop mentally, physically, socially, financially, and skillfully, so
that the poor can also have integrity within society. This is the greatest
contributing factor that made me chose Human Resource Management as the course
to pursue.
I enrolled
into the AIU andragogy system of education that placed major role in shaping my
life even as an Office Administrator of Hope Alive Initiatives.
Upon reading
the report World Watch Institute: State of the World 2010-transforming cultures
from Consumerism to Sustainability, Gary Gardner and others, was one of the
greatest eye-opening report I have ever read and decided to write a paper on
that.
Notwithstanding,
Mohammed Yunus’ book on How to build a social business, also gave me the urge
to start a social business myself. Now I am a CEO for Greater Love Preparatory
School a growing school which started in September 2014 few months when I
enrolled into the AIU program.
I had the
opportunity to study also on employee relations, Motivation, Recruitment and
Selection, Employee appraisal and my other human Resource relegated courses at
AIU and my thesis on firm foundation for farming using biotechnology.
Like I stated
in my paper on Fundamental Principle I (Philosophy of education) “I know there
are problems with the way we view education, we all know that there are
problems with the education system. I am not trying to address all those issues
here. I am merely trying to suggest a different approach to education in the
school system. What I am suggesting is simply offering creative ways for youth
to explore valid talents that can be applied in the real world.” That is
exactly what Atlantic International University is offering, the Andragogy
system of education.
“Philosophy
comes from the Greek word, “philosophia” which means the love of wisdom. All
individuals have a philosophy in life, whether they know it or not.” Jessica Carter. I there urge all to look up
to Atlantic International University for a better experienced educational
system that compelled you to be as practical enough.
