A recent presentation and discussion by national author and speaker Andy Masters was hosted by the Global EDGE Tech Prep Consortium and Collin College at the Spring Creek Campus Conference Center. Masters provided encouraging words and advice to more than 100 students. His message centered on succeeding in your collegiate career and determining the personal and career qualities that will allow you to have “your best” future. Students participated in an engaging dialogue and complete an activity, “The Four Boxes”, to evaluate how to utilize their daily time to better pursue their future goals. Masters presented his personal life story of growing from an uneventful high school career to being ultimately driven to a fully engaged and directed collegiate life.
Additionally, Masters presented to Collin College faculty, staff and surrounding Collin County staff and teachers later that afternoon. Masters provided an inspirational talk on student success and retention. He encouraged the more than 30 attendees to 1. have and show passion for each student, 2. use humor in lectures and presentations, and 3. employ current events, technology and popular celebrities to connect with and engage students.
Both of the presentations were well received and the provided information was timely and appropriate. Attendees of both workshops were provided with a free autographed copy of his book “37 Keys to College Success”. More information about Andy Masters can be found at http://www.life-after-college.com/
