A Look Back at an Inspiring Week at AUCA
2025-11-04 08:00 - 2025-11-07 17:00 UTC
From November 4–7, our MAT students participated in an intensive week of classes filled with collaboration, creativity, and rich professional learning. The week concluded with the MAT Gathering, where students reconnected as a community, reflected on their experiences, and supported one another’s growth.
Although some time has passed, the spirit of that week continues to inspire us. It was a meaningful reminder that teaching is not only about knowledge, but about connection, shared purpose, and continuous development.
We are grateful to everyone who contributed to making that week so vibrant and memorable. Your dedication and engagement continue to shape the strength of our MAT community.
