EXCHANGE FAIR
SCOPE CIMSA UMP
On Monday, April 13th, 2020, SCOPE CIMSA UMP had organized a series of Exchange Fair activities conducted online through air campaigns due to the lack of supportive conditions. The activities were held via Instagram, LINE, WhatsApp, as well as an online class via Zoom during 11 - 15 April 2020.
The air campaign was done before the online class. The air campaign consisted of sharing interesting facts online. The interesting facts we shared were about the different healthcare systems, education systems, cultures, as well as transportation in the countries chosen. We chose to share about the United Kingdom, South Korea, Turkey, Morocco, Germany, and France. The list of countries available for the exchange was posted on our Instagram (@cimsaump). We also provided a guidebook that can be accessed from LINE to the prospective outgoings who may want to store the material for the provision of the SCOPE - IFMSA Professional Exchange activities.
In the implementation of the online class via Zoom for Exchange Fair, SCOPE CIMSA UMP had cooperated with CIMSA Unsoed to invite medical students there to participate in our Exchange Fair activities as well as facilitate the medical students there who are interested in the exchange program. This is because many medical students from Unsoed are interested in this exchange program, but do not yet have the institution or organization to facilitate them.
The main event of Exchange Fair is the online class that was followed by medical students in the city of Purwokerto. The material provided in the online class was mainly about the mechanism of how to participate in the exchange. We also held a question and answer session afterwards. The material contains the exchange mechanism, an overview of the Exchange, the rules of country selection, culture differences, things learned during the exchange, and more. The participants of the online class were very active and responsive. The material was delivered by Project Coordinator and Project Officer for Exchange Fair 2020 activities namely Husna Maulida and Afifatun Nisrina while the Q&A session was held with Arum Nur Wijayanti as LEO CIMSA UMP 2019/2020.
