Michael Bos IEAA-F
Director of International, The Moreton Bay Colleges
What motivated you to embark on the IEAA Fellowship journey?
I was curious. Having spent over 20 years in international education - and mostly in the school sector - I wondered if that experience would translate into a level in the IEAA Fellowship. I started the process of gathering my evidence and was surprised to find that every little thing added up. I soon found myself attaining Associate Fellow. With a little more digging, my experience culminated to Fellow. There is still more digging to do but I am pleased that I embarked on this journey.
How has IEAA Fellowship enhanced your career?
It is nice to have recognition for all the engagement, experience, and involvement in the industry. The fellowship provides me with a talking point for industry colleagues and for new people that I meet in the industry.
What tips would you give to someone who’s on the Fellowship journey?
I am a huge advocate for professional development and recognition, so I encourage my school-sector colleagues to embark on the IEAA Fellowship journey. My recommendation is to try it - you never know where you might end up.
