14 SIAS INTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITY WORLD ACADEMY PARTNERSHIP 西亚斯国际学院与世界女性未来发展学院合作伙伴关系 Sias International University in Xinzheng, Henan Province, hosts the World Academy for the Future of Women and serves as the global hub for World Academy activities and programs. The partnership with Sias began in 2009 when University founder and chairman, Shawn Chen, and Jerrie Ueberle, former Sias Foundation Board President and founder of Global Interactions, a U.S. 501(C)(3), non-profit corporation, created a partnership to house the World Academy on Sias campus. 西亚斯国际学院位于河南省新郑市, 是世界未来女性发展学院的根基地, 也是女性学院在全球范围开展活动及项目的中心场所西亚斯的合作始于 2009 年, 由西亚斯国际学院的创始人兼理事长陈肖纯先生, 与前西亚斯基金会主席兼美国非盈利公司 -- 环球交流公司总裁杰瑞尤伯利女士, 共同商议决定将世界女性未来发展学院设立于西亚斯校园内 The generous in-kind support given by Sias in providing office space, classrooms, and accommodations for the World Academy facilitators, has provided the stability to develop and expand the Academy. The original one-year program for 100 women in 2009, has grown to a multi-level three year program for women, and a Men s Academy for the Future of Women, which replicates the women s program and prepares men to support the advancement of women. Over the past 7 years more than 780 Sias students have been selected for this bold and daring leadership program. In addition to their Sias academic coursework, Academy members are required to volunteer a minimum of 8-10 hours per week in seminars, labs, coaching, open forums, and to be a leader in a project aligned with one of the United Nations Sustainability Goals. This rigorous action leadership curriculum ensures that members can implement the skills they have learned and are able to be a leader on campus, in their community, their country, and the world. A World Academy in Action Alumni Association maintains the strong bounds developed in the Academy and extends the relationship following their completion of the Academy program to embrace post graduate studies, internships, and employment in careers that enable them to demonstrate their passion and purpose as global citizens. 西亚斯国际学院慷慨的为女性学院提供办公室教室, 也承担了女性学院导师们在西亚斯的食宿, 这都为学院的发展和壮大提供了极为稳定的保障女性学院从 2009 年成立之初每年招收 100 名学员的一年制项目, 发展到如今共三个不同年级的女性学院, 包括了男性学院在内的全方位多层次培训组织在过去的七年中, 共有超过 780 名的西亚斯学生被录取到这个严谨大胆的领导力项目中在西亚斯国际学院课程之外, 女院成员每周要志愿参与 8-10 个小时的研讨课实验课公开课辅导课的领导力学习, 同时也要求参与和领导一个或多个, 以联合国和持续发展目标为核心的公益项目活动组严格缜密实践性的领导力课程设置, 确保学员可以运用她们所学到的领导力技能, 成为校园社区国家和世界的领袖世界女性未来发展学院校友会, 保持了与女院的紧密联系, 并延续到完成女院课程的后续阶段, 如研究生学习实习和工作中, 继续承担全球化公民的责任, 展现他们的激情与目标 14
