The IVE Higher Diploma allowed me to accumulate extensive practical experiences. I participated in the World Solar Challenge for three consecutive years, designing the power systems and energy management programmes for solar-powered vehicles, and won third place in the Australian competition. These valuable experiences enhanced my competitiveness and greatly supported my progression to university.

The Higher Diploma in Child Care and Education at IVE is recognised by the Education Bureau, enabling graduates to obtain registration qualifications as kindergarten teachers and special childcare workers. The comprehensive curriculum includes practical, workplace-relevant pedagogies such as play-based learning, the concepts and applications of which have been invaluable throughout my career.
