CLAP-TECH CENTRE 

The CLAP-TECH Centre (CTC) has been pioneering the first vocational-oriented school-to-work learning pathway in Hong Kong that bridges from mainstream secondary school education to tertiary education, with multiple entry and exit points. The new pathway provides authentic learning opportunities and meaningful employer encounters including career mentorship, workplace learning, industry exposure, and internships that complement the existing mainstream education system. As a pilot, the new pathway is built upon a tripartite partnership of secondary schools, the Hong Kong Baptist University, and industry partners to foster talent development in ICT as the first track and in creative media as the second track.

The appointee will report to the Project Manager of the Centre, and work closely with CTC staff to perform a wide spectrum of administrative and data analytics tasks.
