From February 16–19, 2026, STELA delegates joined the school staff of Phon Commercial and Technical College in an outreach initiative aimed at promoting the college’s academic programs while also strengthening English learning in partner schools. The activity highlighted collaboration, educational access, and community engagement.
The delegation visited four schools: BanWangKhon PhatNongWang School, Ponprachanukun Municipal School, Ban Thung Noi School, and Trikham Wittaya School. In each school, representatives from Phon Commercial and Technical College introduced their technical and vocational programs, encouraging students to explore diverse pathways for their future careers.
Alongside the promotions, the STELA delegates conducted engaging English lessons designed to enhance students’ communication skills and build their confidence in using the language. Through interactive activities, games, and practical exercises, students were given meaningful opportunities to practice English in a supportive environment.
This initiative reflects the commitment to Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 4: Quality Education, as it expands learning opportunities and promotes inclusive and equitable education. By bringing both academic information and language instruction directly to students, the outreach supports informed decision-making and lifelong learning.
Furthermore, the partnership between STELA delegates and Phon Commercial and Technical College demonstrates SDG 17: Partnerships for the Goals, showcasing how collaboration between institutions can strengthen educational impact and community development.
Through this meaningful engagement, the delegates and the college staff not only promoted educational programs but also inspired students to pursue their goals with confidence and global competence.
