Message from the
President of
Ateneo de Manila

Fr. Roberto C. Yap, SJ

On behalf of Ateneo de Manila University, welcome to the Capacity Building workshop of the Measuring and Comparing Achievements of Learning Outcomes in Higher Education in Asia (CALOHEA) project. 

It is an honor to join fellow educators for robust and engaging conversations on teaching and learning matters. In the next two days, we can listen, learn, and share insights with educators, researchers, students from HEIs nationwide, other ASEAN HEIs, and policymakers and stakeholders.  

Now is an opportune time to assess how we, as ASEAN HEIs, have progressed in increasing the internationalization efforts of higher education institutions in the region. We have accomplished much, but know we can do more if we continue cooperating toward this shared vision. 

In hosting this event, Ateneo de Manila reaffirms its focused commitment to collaborate in exchanging knowledge, information, and practice that will strengthen ASEAN HEIs’ response to the changing context of higher education. In doing so, we hope to help our students and graduates reach their full potential and lead the path towards global transformation and sustainability. 

I wish you a productive and enlightening meeting!
