Studying HHPA at HKU SPACE CC has enriched my knowledge of the health care sector and nursing. This programme was useful and interesting. It provided a positive learning environment and encouraged us to cooperate with each other. I have learnt more about the health delivery and health financing systems in Hong Kong from the healthcare and public health courses, which broadened my horizon and helped me perform better at the University interviews. I appreciate the College for providing an opportunity to achieve my goal, paving the way for a fruitful future!

I was so confused when I got my DSE results two years ago. Fortunately, I noticed that there was a Programme called Healthcare & Health Plan Administration at HKU SPACE CC. These two years of studies helped me understand the spectrum of issues in the medical system in HK. It showed me the different social institutions and broadened my understanding of healthcare systems around the world. It enriched my understanding of pathophysiology and the related studies, and provided me with the experiences of back-office work in the healthcare delivery system. These really helped me to fully realise my interest and to decide what I want to do in the future. Moreover, my classmates were positive and competitive. We worked together and fought together. I also really appreciated the teachers and HKU SPACE CC for giving me this opportunity to further study in the degree programme.

Studying HHPA at HKU SPACE CC was a fruitful experience for me. It provided a diverse range of healthcare knowledge, and a solid understanding of the healthcare system fundamentals, enabling me to pursue further education at university.
The internship was a valuable opportunity, in which I applied the knowledge learned in the lessons. I became more aware of the issues in the primary care sector, and I found my interest in ameliorating the problems in the healthcare sector. I would like to extend my gratitude to the lecturers as they always advised and encouraged me.

Studying HHPA at HKU SPACE CC helped me acquire a deeper understanding of the Hong Kong healthcare system and its upcoming challenges. I also learned more about theories and various problem-solving skills. Internship provided the learning environment for me to practise what I learned at the College. This precious experience helped me develop both academically and personally. Students could also join different clubs at HKU SPACE CC to develop humanistic values and interpersonal skills. These prepared me for the future. I am grateful for the learning experiences and thank the College for helping me progress successfully to the University.

兩年前考文憑試成績不理想，於是決定報讀港大附屬學院。由於本身對醫療行業有興趣，碰巧「醫護及健保行政」高級文憑課程又剛推出，所以便報讀，又因這決定，才有幸踏入醫療行業。兩年間講師們耐心教導，他們優秀的教學方式，使我更用心學習。同學之間會互相鼓勵及交流，學習過程並不孤單，更營造良好的學習氣氛。課程提供講座及實習機會，令我不只在知識上進步，實踐上亦有增益。 現在我已正式受聘在診所全職工作，踏入醫療行業第一步。全因入讀這科，我才可以找到前路。

文憑試放榜後，雖然與大學夢擦身而過，但我立下決心繼續裝備自己，希望能夠完成大學夢。最後我修讀了HKU SPACE的「醫護及健保行政」高級文憑課程，課程中包含了跨學科的內容，鞏固了我對不同範疇的知識，為進入大學打下基礎。另外，課程中需要完成實習，令我熟習到實際的工作環境，認清自己的就業方向。老師除了在課堂上能夠維持良好的教學氣氛，課餘時也十分熱心地抽出時間教授同學們入讀大學的面試技巧，令我十分感激。學院還會舉辦很多入讀大學的講座及提供資訊予同學，令我們在升學中裝備得更好，提升入讀大學的機會！

Studying Healthcare and Health Plan Administration at HKU SPACE CC has exposed me to a broader spectrum of healthcare issues, ranging from health planning to the structure of the medical system in Hong Kong and other countries. As the number of the aging population has rocketed, the healthcare demand for elderly service and organizations is increasing. This Programme enriches my health sciences knowledge, while helping me understand the factors behind the demand and supply for elderly services. All these help students think more thoroughly about their interests and future decisions. During our internship, students were assigned to different community centres or clinics, where they experienced, or observed first-hand, the routine tasks and duties of a community nurse or counsellor. This was a brand-new experience for most students. I really appreciate the college for giving me a second chance to achieve my goal to study in the university.

Studying Healthcare & Health Plan Administration at HKU SPACE CC has fostered my knowledge of the healthcare sector. The teachers here are welcoming, which allows me to ask questions and learn in a comfortable atmosphere. The Programme courses are diverse, interesting, and useful. They broaden my horizons on society and the causes and impacts of diseases in broader historical and comparative contexts. There are also sociology and positive psychology courses, and I have learnt a lot about the different healthcare delivery and financing systems from my coursework assignments. In addition, my internship provided a precious opportunity for me to understand my potential and strength. I participated in a community centre and earned health promotion experiences, which are advantageous for my future career. I will enter the university soon and I thank HKU SPACE CC for offering me the opportunity!
