The 11th meeting of HKCTC Panel on Manpower Development

The 11^th meeting of HKCTC Panel of Manpower Development was held on 12^th Mar 2026. Because my class schedule conflicted with the meeting, I participated in the first part of the online meeting. We discussed Mascot design and how to promote HKCTC for public including students.

I like HKCTC slogan “Catalysing Excellence”! I look forward to the next meeting of HKCTC Panel on Manpower Development.

PolyU FITE Seminar Series - “HKQF-TIC and the Education & Career Pathway of the TIC Profession”

I was honor to be invited by Prof. Gary Tang as a speaker of FITE Seminar and the topic entitled “The Hong Kong Qualification Framework for Testing, Inspection and Certification (TIC) and the Education & Career Pathway of the TIC Profession” on 4^th Mar 2026. This Seminar is supported by UGC's Fund for Innovative Technology-in-Education (FITE) under Faculty of Science, PolyU.

Before the seminar began, I took a photo with Prof. Gary Tang and Dr. Joe Lam in class.

In the beginning, I introduced the Hong Kong Qualification Framework (HKQF) for testing, inspection and certification (TIC) and there has seven QF levels.

And then I briefed the Hong Kong Council for Testing and Certification which established in Sep 2009. It aims to formulate overall development strategy of Hong Kong’s testing and certification industry.

After that I shared my career experience entitled “Connect the dots” which was based on Steve Jobs statement in Stanford Commencement Address in 2005. He said “You can't connect the dots looking forward you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future.” I demonstrated all my dots in past 30+ years experience.

I asked the students to vote for their three areas of greatest interest, and the results showed that they were medical testing, food testing, and traditional Chinese medicine testing.

Finally, I surveyed the students about their desired careers and found that chemist, inspector, and auditor were the top three career choices.

The last topics I shared were my company-based capstone projects in COMP department. I invited TIC industry to support my students project including precious metals test, construction test, ecotoxicity test and drug packaging industry.

Then Prof. Gary Tang led the Q&A session.

Lastly, Dr. Joe Lam and Prof. Gary Tang presented souvenir to me.
