HKACE x SEED x WeLab Data Analytics Workshop for Educators

 Meaningful education goes beyond theory and brings learning into the real world.

Last week, we were delighted to collaborate with the The Hong Kong Association For Computer Education (HKACE) and WeLab Bank to bring a group of secondary school educators to a leading fintech institution, where they took part in an immersive learning experience that combined theory, hands-on practice and industry insights in a real professional environment.

Professional development for educators should not be confined to classrooms or traditional workshops. By stepping into the industry, participants can gain a deeper understanding of how knowledge is applied in real-world settings and bring those insights back to their classrooms.

The workshop was led by Sunny NG, Chief Trainer at Image Nation, who guided participants through the practical use of data analytics tools, AI-assisted analysis and data storytelling. The session also gave educators the opportunity to understand how big data supports critical decision-making in business environment.

We would like to extend our sincere appreciation to WeLab Bank, particularly Kenny Cheng, Chief Financial and Operations Officer, Alternate Chief Executive, and Benny Chan, Senior Manager, Data and Analytics, for sharing their valuable insights and industry experience with our participants.

Special thanks to Ernest Leung, President and Group COO at WeLab, for his strong support in making this meaningful industry and education collaboration possible.

When educators gain first-hand exposure to industry and understand how technology and data are applied in the real world, they can bring broader perspectives and deeper insights into the classroom, helping create learning experiences that are more relevant to the needs of the future.

We look forward to working with more like-minded schools, businesses and organisations to create meaningful opportunities for educators to connect with industry and broaden their horizons.
