The final solution to any problem was made as a final answer from the Academic Committee meeting. The FBA-AB program surveyed the satisfaction of current students
The students of 3 cohorts have many channels of speaking out their dissatisfaction. First, all students have a chance to anonymously evaluate teaching and learning processes of each course. Second, they can consult with any academic staffs who were course coordinators / course instructors / clinical supervisors. The academic staff could immediately help solve some problems or in turn report the situation to the monthly meeting for solution seeking. Third, the Dean and administrative team regularly meet the students every semester. The students could discuss their unhappiness or dissatisfactions directly to the Dean. Last, students can voice their satisfaction/dissatisfaction by filling out the online survey form annually gathered by the AB program.

The Airline Business program is providing academic service to the community like Lamphun District.  Indeed it is a necessity for the college specifically the Airline Business program to perform academic service to the community on their own organized project. The enrichment of a professional learning community in which college/university teaching staff can swap ideas, advice and assistance is a big support when implementing institutional curriculum reforms. Enabling staff to build collaborative networks aids their individual and collective growth, helping improve teaching and learning. This in turn help our students develop their social skills as well as become responsible individual in the community.

Service learning is one of the teaching pedagogies each lecturer must know and it is a voluntary act that will make our learners get closed to the community, identify their needs and become available on or before trying or difficult times. 

Our lecturers, students, business and government leaders continue to work together to teach and to learn English language in order to communicate to the international communities. The learning experiences through online platform is already in its second year of implementation and most of the benefactors learned and enjoy a lot in the session. Evidence: Teaching English Language to Business Operators in Lamphun

The enrichment of a Arts and Culture preservation in which college/university teaching staff, students, audiences can live to the idea that unique identity will definitely be written in the history.. Enabling staff to build brand and integrate Thainess is helping improve teaching and learning more fun and responsible. This in turn help our students develop their Arts and Culture awareness and they need to carry out this pillar throughout their life wherever they go.

Some of the activities wherein the lecturers and staff were engaged in 1, Father’s Day Celebration, Mother’s Day Celebration, Wai Khru Day and others to preserve Thai Culture   Other college events are published in the college’s newsletter (STIC OnPoint) as well as in the college website.( Evidence on Arts and Culture).
