On September 12, 2024, the Faculty of Business Administration and Accountancy at Khon Kaen University (KKBS) entered into an exciting new partnership with the Khon Kaen Women Entrepreneurs and Professional Association. The signing ceremony for this landmark academic cooperation agreement took place in the prestigious Naphapailin Room at KKBS, with key representatives from both organizations in attendance. The agreement was signed by Assist. Prof. Dr. Pongsutti Phuensane, Dean of KKBS, and Ms. Wanpen Kasemsan na Ayudhya, President of the Khon Kaen Women Entrepreneurs and Professional Association.
This collaboration sets a strong foundation for enhancing educational opportunities by providing students with hands-on experience through internships and cooperative education with both public and private sector organizations. Beyond this, the partnership will support academic services, research projects, and specialized training in business administration and accountancy. These initiatives will be open to students, the general public, and anyone eager to enhance their professional skills, fostering personal growth and broad-based expertise.
Assist. Prof. Dr. Pongsutti Phuensane expressed his enthusiasm for the partnership, stating, “We are thrilled to sign this MOU with the Khon Kaen Women Entrepreneurs and Professional Association. Our shared goal is to boost the delivery of academic services to the community, including training programs and seminars. The association has been incredibly supportive, offering scholarships for our students and helping them secure valuable internships and cooperative education opportunities.”
One of the standout activities from this partnership is the successful “Financial Discipline Awareness Campaign,” previously organized by the Khon Kaen Women Entrepreneurs and Professional Association in collaboration with KKBS’s Investment Learning Center and the Stock Exchange of Thailand. The event, titled “Financial Planning & Investment Mastery,” was a major success. With this new agreement in place, both parties are committed to rolling out even more impactful projects that will benefit the university and the wider community.
This partnership marks the beginning of a dynamic collaboration, promising to bring a wealth of opportunities to students and aspiring professionals across Khon Kaen and beyond.
