Hello!
My name is Susanna Kislenko and I have just completed my third year
of the International B.B.A. (i.B.B.A) degree at the Schulich School
of Business in Toronto. I am currently working with an organization
called World Education Services
(WES). The mission of WES is to foster the integration of immigrants
educated in foreign countries into academic and professional settings
in North America. As such, the majority of the work is credential
evaluation.
I am working on a number of projects, with the main one being the
World Education Data Base (WEDB), which is an online resource that
WES provides which has profiles of the educational systems of various
countries around the world. Under this project, I am currently updating
the profiles that are already in existence, as well as creating new
profiles for some important countries that are still missing from
the database. This is actually a great resource for anyone needing
such information and is accessible to everyone, even though it is
mostly used by educational institutions.
My other projects are related to marketing and other online promotion
initiatives. This includes the re-design of the layout of the WEDB,
the implementation of an online application form and the creation
of new online partnerships for WES.
The office is in Toronto, where I have lived for the last 15 years,
but I have just come back from my year abroad in Barcelona, Spain,
so I am still adjusting to being back here.
Nonetheless, I am looking forward to my summer here and I am sure
we will all have rewarding experiences in our respective organizations.
Best of luck to everyone.
un abrazo,
Susanna
