On June 4, 2025, the Academic Service Bureau, in collaboration with the Faculty of Engineering at Khon Kaen University (KKU), organized an intensive workshop titled “AI for Executive Secretaries: Enhancing Professional Efficiency through Artificial Intelligence.” The event, held at Baya Sita Hotel on the KKU campus, reinforces the university’s mission of promoting lifelong education and developing 21st-century skills among Thailand’s workforce.
The opening ceremony was presided over by Assoc. Prof. Dr. Chuchart Kamollert, Director of the Academic Service Bureau, who emphasized the unit’s strategic commitment to driving lifelong learning in alignment with KKU’s vision to build a learning society. He highlighted the importance of reskilling and upskilling human capital to meet the demands of the digital age and Industry 4.0 transformation.
The training featured Assoc. Prof. Dr. Kanda Saikaew, an AI specialist from the Computer Engineering Program, Faculty of Engineering, and Deputy Director for Digital Technology and Innovation at the Office of Academic Resources. Dr. Kanda provided participants with in-depth knowledge and hands-on experience in applying AI tools to real-world administrative tasks.
The workshop welcomed attendees from both the public and private sectors, including internal and external personnel affiliated with Khon Kaen University. Key practical topics covered included:
- Prompt Engineering Techniques for generating accurate and relevant AI responses
