TVET/ITEP Summit June 2016

We had a wonderful time in Fiji at the TVET (Technical Vocational Education Training) and ITEP (International Teacher Education Program) Summit in Nadi, Fiji.   About 55 people attended:  principals, vice principals, missionaries, HOD's.

Silly TVET

We gave two presentations one on behavior strategies and one on Good Better Best.
The weather was beautiful and we had a good time.

All of our ITEP missionaries came in for the meetings.   They are such great, hard-working people.

Here we all are with Jon Shute, our director at BYU Hawaii, in Nadi, Fiji, June 15, 2016.

Our ITEP missionaries were all at the Conference and gave presentations as well.  We love them so much for their hard work and dedication.

We had fun together at the conference and had a lot of great experiences.   The last evening we had dinner at Fiji National University where the culinary arts students prepared the meal.  After they served the dinner they sang a goodbye song for us.
