Education is a fundamental aspect of personal and professional development. For this reason, it is not uncommon for people to showcase their educational capabilities to potential employers or colleagues. One way of doing this is by creating a page that highlights one’s educational achievements and qualifications.

Conference Participation

In my opinion, Participation in workshops and conferences can also provide a platform for individuals to showcase our own research, projects, or ideas. By presenting at a conference or workshop, I had received feedback from peers and experts in their field, and potentially gain recognition and credibility for their work.

This had been particularly beneficial for me in early-career professional life while I was looking to establish myself in my field.

Additionally, attending workshops and conferences provided opportunities for me to explore new areas of interest and potentially shift my career trajectory. By networking with professionals in related fields or attending sessions outside of their typical area of focus, I  discovered new passions or interests which pursued me in my work.

Ultimately, participation in workshops and conferences had been a valuable way to stay engaged and connected to one’s profession, and to continuously grow and develop as a professional.

Training Areas

Participation in training has been a valuable way for me to develop new skills and knowledge, and to enhance my performance in the workplace.

In today’s rapidly evolving job market, it’s important for individuals to stay up-to-date with the latest trends and technologies.

Teaching Journey

My journey in teaching is one of passion, dedication, and a commitment to excellence. As an Assistant Professor at the School of Business and Economics at North South University in Dhaka, Bangladesh, I have been shaping the minds of my students with my teaching techniques and engaging style for many years.

I started my teaching journey in 2010 as a lecturer at East West University in Dhaka, where I taught courses in macroeconomics, microeconomics, and international trade. I got a chance to establish myself as a skilled educator, earning the admiration and respect of my students and colleagues.

In 2013, I joined the School of Business and Economics at North South University, where I continued to hone my craft and tried to expand my expertise. My teaching style emphasizes the practical application of economic principles in real-world situations, helping my students to understand the economic landscape and its impact on society.

My journey in teaching has been marked by my passion for economics and the commitment to helping my students succeed.
