Mandatory Professionalisation Training for OASA Trainer and Training Associates

To continue to raise our quality of teaching and training to a more professional level, OASA shall be providing, free-of-charge, professional remedial training for a select group of trainers. 

The demand for OASA programs has skyrocketed and we are working very hard to bring in quality teachers and trainers so that our students continue to receive the very best. For this summer, we anticipate there will be dozens of OASA programs needing professional trainers. Depending on the level and type of programme and trainer, the training honorarium fees per hour for external courses and programs have ranged up to HK$3000.
