Congratulations to a team of academics who just concluded an exchange visit to the United Kingdom as part of a British Council funded TNE collaboration between the University of Uyo<\/a> and Edinburgh Napier University<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The three day exchange visit is part of the British Council funded project titled \u201cLeveraging digital technologies to drive sustainability, inclusiveness and employability in Technical, Vocational, Education and Training (TVET) for Construction Education with acronym \u201cDT4TVET\u201d. We are immensely grateful to the British Council<\/a> for funding the exchange visit which is aimed at empowering instructors and teachers at TVET level of education with requisite and relevant digital technological skills to boost innovation, foster sustainability and drive inclusiveness in our schools and ultimately boost employability of our learners in this global technology-driven environment.<\/p>\n

The programme started with a courtesy visit to Peter, the Dean, SCEBE:<\/p>\n

and ended with a discussion event and tour of some Edinburgh Napier University lab facilities:<\/p>\n
