WELCOME! 

 

Dear HP LIFE partners and colleagues,

Welcome to our HP Learning Initiative for Entrepreneurs (HP LIFE) website for the Asia Pacific and Japan region!

2011 has been a fruitful year for HP LIFE.  In January, we held the very first HP LIFE Training of Trainers and Programmatic Workshop in North America ; in March, HP senior management officials visited Training Centers in India ; in June, we happily announced the HP LIFE Program’s 2011 Grant Winners ; and in September, the Training of Trainers in India  and China  added 31 certified HP LIFE Trainers and 7 Master Trainers to the global HP LIFE family of certified trainers!  And in addition to the regular trainings within the HP LIFE Program, the training curriculum has been given extended application in order to reach to more participants, including young government leaders in China  and disadvantaged students in rural Thailand .

The first great news of 2012 is that we will be announcing the soft-launch of our all-new online M&E system, the IMPACT TOOL, in February.  We will be updating you soon with other exciting news. Stay tuned!
