One of the very challenge to soar the “Center of Academic Excellence” is to build roots of regional and international relations which is to spring up the pursuit of delivering quality education not just on the borders of the Philippines but of the entire ASEAN member countries. Hence, the visionary goals of my University superimposed the dedication to bring its strength and excellence spreading out through the depths of other cultural context.

CapSU as one of the participating Universities in the South East Asian Ministers of Education Organization (SEAMEO) shared the perspectives to enhance global competitiveness, knowledge and skills in education.

On the outset of the participating the project we had been indulged to various aspect of preparations and pre-orientations before sending the SEA Teachers out to their assigned schools in South East Asia as pre-service student Teacher exchange.

During the process and preparation, we got some memorable first time encounters frostbitten my anxious heart and curious mind. To name a few, I got my first Philippines passport, first online interview, first online training and many first-time relaxes and cramming. But it all end up fulfilling. I got my first international flight then.
