Lee Ka Yee, Patsy Associate of Social Sciences

After becoming a student of Social Sciences at HKU SPACE Community College, I can honestly say that I am glad that I failed HKALE. If I had been "lucky" enough to become a university student by the traditional route, I would currently be studying engineering and convincing myself that being engineer is well-paid and secure. However, I would never have had the chance to realize that my real passion lay in studying Social Sciences. After two years of study, the most important message I have received is to be curious and constructively critical. In doing so, I will gain academic advantages and bring benefit to my whole life. 查看詳情

劉小玉 (Jade) 2022年升讀香港浸會大學傳理學院傳播系(公關及廣告)

修讀公關及企業傳訊高級文憑時，我最深刻的是意識到溝通的重要。透過不同科目包括活動策劃、廣告、新聞傳理和市場營銷等，我更了解到「溝通傳意」不僅存在於文字言語裡，它還隱藏於人與人之間不同感官的互動當中。PRCC助我清楚自身在相關行業的目標，繼續升學！查看詳情

Kazaf Ip Graduate of Higher Diploma in Library and Information Management in 2012-13

What you could achieve in this programme is inconceivable! To a large extent, this programme creates a platform for us to equip ourselves well before working in this competitive society. Apart from lectures, site visits to different kinds of libraries and information centres are arranged, giving us chances to explore more about the inner side of library work. Feedback from immediate supervisors during work placement is sincerely valuable for us to review our weakness in specific areas. 查看詳情

Leung Tsz Him Higher Diploma in Information Technology (Networking Stream, 2010-2013)

Before studying in HKU SPACE CC my goal, like most of the secondary students, was to become a university student so that I spent lots of time to study the subjects in HKALE yet I could not have a thorough grasp of the principles in the subject knowledge. As a result, l got lost at that moment. After HKALE, I decided to study in Higher Diploma in Information Technology (Networking Stream). During these years, I found my interest and goal and the programme led me to explore the new world in Information Technology. Our lecturers have shown great support to me in class or out of office hours, and have always shared their own experiences that have made me regain confidence in my future. Also, lecturers provided us with lots of opportunities to broaden our horizons. Last year, I represented the College to join the Hong Kong Macau Networking Skills Competition which was part of an international competition. Moreover, the programme design was great to obtain different industrial certificates such as CCNA and CCNP, etc. Both the theoretical materials and practical skill trainings in this programme are beneficial to our job seeking in the industry. I’m still enjoying the learning atmosphere in HKU SPACE CC. The most valuable thing I have acquired in this programme is not just the networking skills but also the self-confidence regained from being lost in secondary school. I believe you won’t succeed if you don’t believe in yourself. Now, I have been successfully admitted to The University of Hong Kong for further study. Hopefully, you will also find your way to success. Don’t give up and have a try at something you’re interested in. 查看詳情

Samuel Chan Higher Diploma in Information Technology (Web and Multimedia Development Stream, 2014-16)

Two years ago, I did not do well in the examinations and could not continue my studies in university. I was worried and did not know what to do, just like how you are feeling at this moment. However, I stumbled upon this quote and it changed my whole mentality on my situation: “Life always has its ups and downs. If it doesn’t, you are dead.” To me, this quote means that it is normal to succeed or fail in life. Without failure, one would not be able to treasure the success he has achieved and the same goes to the other way. With this in mind, I decided to look and apply for higher diploma programmes to further my studies. In the end, I picked the Higher Diploma in Information Technology programme offered by HKU SPACE CC and learned the keys to success in studying through the two-year programme. One of the ways to success is to choose to study a programme that interests you. Of course, nobody likes to study, but a course you are interested in will be much more preferable than one that you hate. In addition, you will feel more motivated towards the course as you want to be more familiar about the subject. Motivation will definitely help you achieve your goals, whether it is studying or working on assignments. Hence, if you are not sure of what subject that you are interested in, then give yourself some time on this website and look for a programme that you will have the most interest in studying and apply for it. Another key to success is to use your time wisely. Everyone has 24 hours a day. How you use those hours is all upon you. If you find a subject challenging, then spend more time studying on that specific course. If more hours invested on it and it still does not do the trick, then asking lecturers for assistance will be another option. Remember, lecturers are the best resources available to you. Use this approach wisely. Last but not least, the key to success is to learn from your mistakes. “You can’t let your failures define you. You have to let your failures teach you.” You may have failed before, but many successful people fail all the time. What is important is that you learn from your mistakes and never make the same mistakes again. 查看詳情
