The Education University of Hong Kong (EdUHK) held a ceremony today (27 May) for the President’s Awards for Outstanding Performance in Teaching, Research, Knowledge Transfer and Administrative Services 2019/20 and 2020/21. On the occasion, EdUHK President Professor Stephen Cheung Yan-leung presented the awards to fourteen staff members and four teams for their achievements and contributions.
In view of the pandemic, the 2019/20 presentation ceremony was held online, alongside the 2020/21 version. In his opening address, Professor Cheung congratulated the staff on their outstanding performance. He said, “Notwithstanding the great challenges and interruptions brought by COVID-19, the University continues to uphold professionalism and has implemented a comprehensive range of measures and innovative educational solutions. Without our colleagues’ diligence, dedication and concerted efforts, the University would not have been able to overcome the different obstacles during the pandemic.” He sincerely thanked all colleagues’ contributions and support in embracing new challenges and scaling new heights of excellence.
