Many thanks to all the parents and students who joined me last week for the webinar on Bridge-U. All Class 9 students have now been on-boarded onto the system with their own individualised account; their parents have also been sent a link to enable them to sign in to this account. Invitation emails were only valid for 72 hours so if you are unable to gain access, please contact me and I will assist.
To recap a few points from the webinar, Bridge U provides:
- Access for all students in Classes 9-12
- Support for our students to enable them to make well-informed decisions about their post-Dyatmika education
- Personalised university and course matching aligning a student’s skills and aspirations with relevant universities and courses
- University matches for: the USA, Canada, Australia, the UK, Germany, the Netherlands, Hong Kong, India, Japan and Spain
- Management of the university process from research through to application
As parents, you also play an important role and can best contribute in the following ways:
- Review the experiences your child has entered into the Strategy Advisor. As a parent, you may be able to think of additional experiences your child has missed.
- As your child begins researching their shortlist of universities and courses, initiate a conversation to help your child understand family expectations about things like tuition cost or geographic location.
- Encourage your child to organise, track, and update their progress within Applications as they prepare and send university applications. This will ensure you, your child, and your child’s mentor are all on the same page throughout the application process.
Enjoy exploring – and let me know if you have any questions!
