My students participated in Global Village Inspiration Day.

Global Village Inspiration Day

The primary goal of Oiada is to prepare students for the global workforce and empower them to become 21st century global citizens and world leaders. To that end, we have a program called Global Village Inspiration Day which provides students the opportunity to speak “LIVE” with prominent individuals from various fields and backgrounds who can encourage them to achieve their goals.

Guest speaker

On Wed. May 11^th from 1-2pm EST via Zoom, our guest speaker will be the CEO of Skyhigh Security (formerly McAfee), Dr. Gee Rittenhouse. Prior to his recent CEO appointment, Dr. Rittenhouse was the Senior Vice President/GM of Cisco’s Security Business Group. Prior to Cisco, he was President of Bell Labs of Alcatel-Lucent. Dr. Rittenhouse is a highly respected industry leader and has appeared before the US Congress, US FCC, European Presidential Commission, and World Economic Forum. He also has been twice elected to the Global Telecoms Business Power 100. This is an amazing opportunity for your students to be able to take a step inside an organization and experience the life of a CEO and learn how things work from their perspective.
