New date and arrangements of Final Project Pitching Day

Invitation to attend the Jockey Club MEL Institute Project: Final Project Pitching Day

In 2019, more than 120 participants joined the 6-month Jockey Club MEL Training Programme, which included a 14-week Certificate Training Course delivered by overseas and local experts, and a 4-month Mentored Practicum delivered by experienced mentors.

The Final Project Pitching Day of our first batch of training will be held on 27 April 2020 (Monday). 30 Teams were formed by participants from local NGOs, and each team will give a 5-min presentation on their evaluation results.
