Case study will be provided for a group exercise to prepare Financial Model for a Port project. In order to create real­life simulation, periodic variations in business volume / revenue may be introduced during the Financial modelling exercise. Structure: The course is structured in four sessions: Session1: This covers Port Development Perspective and Elements of Maritime Infrastructure. Level of port infrastructure and investment required in order to cater to the market requirement. It will also address the National PPP Policy for Port infrastructure development. Session 2: This session covers Concession Agreements for Port Development. In order to attract private investments for Port development, most of the maritime nations offer attractive terms under Concession Agreements for port development. Draft / model Concession Agreements from different regions will be analysed and discussed in the interactive session. Session 3: Assessment of market and estimation of business volume for the port is the fundamental and first step in the process of port development. This session covers methodology and structure of market assessment. It also covers mapping of port’s hinterland, identification of infrastructure linkages, competition analysis and preparing USP for the proposed port. Business Volume consists of traffic in metric tons and revenue which form the basis of further evaluation and preparation of Financial Model and Detailed Project Report. Session 4: This session addresses the subject of Financial Modelling. Based on the inputs from earlier sessions, basic financial model for the port project will be prepared by the participants themselves. This will be done by way of a group case study in which participants will be encouraged to make Business Volume estimation, detailed costs of the project, Income – Expenditure – Profit & Loss and arrive at Financial viability of the Port investment. Financial results of alternate investment options help the decision makers to arrive at optimum decisions in Green / Brown field Port Projects.       Endorsement for the executive workshop from past participants: “Excellent workshop – case study was related to real port developments & operations.

Creating a Classroom Environment That Helps Students Grow Studies on the mental health of school principals and teachers are now in mainstream media. Principals reported higher levels of burnout than the general population, twice as much difficulty sleeping as a result of stress and were at higher risk of depression. ABC news Jan 2018 Sydney Morning Herald reported in 2017 that, 'Up to half of all Australian teachers are leaving the profession in the first five years.' The sheer quantity of work and a lack of time to focus on teaching and learning were the two biggest causes of stress. Our Students Are Suffering Also. It’s not just our teachers and school leaders that are suffering but also our students. Many classroom teachers are dealing with students who display: ●     A lack of focus and attention that often leads to ... ●     Disruptive behaviour that often leads to poor attendance and this leads to... ●     Poor academic performance and confidence. It becomes a negative self-fulfilling prophecy! Sadly, the interventions to make this better and improve the classroom experience for students and teachers miss a crucial component - the link between mental health and school performance. ●     Nearly half (47 per cent) of Australian students feel very tense when they study, compared to the international average of 37 per cent. ●     Based on the OECD average, 67 per cent of Australian students report feeling very anxious even if well prepared for a test, compared to the international average of 56 per cent (64 per cent for girls and 47 per cent for boys). School-based stress reduction programs based on mindful play, fun and movement, have been shown to be effective in the United States. Similar programs would benefit Australian school children. If you want to reduce the burnout of school staff and create a culture of growth and improvement in your students attend our Professional Development to learn fun ways to enhance the mental health and wellbeing of staff and students You’ll receive a range of evidence-based practical strategies based on play, fun and movement that will: Help students focus, increase their productivity, and reduce their stress. Reduce disruptive behaviour Increase effort students put into their activities as well as their ability to stay on task. Improve attention and memory, Increased brain activity and cognitive function, Enhance mood and ability to cope with stress. The workshop will include: ●     Large movement board games ●     Musical workouts ●     Brain breaks and energy breaks ●     Gamification in education ●     Dice and card activities to get everyone moving ●     Team building games ●     Game development and cross-curricular activities ●     And more……. In addition to a whole day workshop, all attendees will take home a huge resource pack filled with games and lesson plan ideas valued at over $600. All participants are requested to bring with them the following: A Laptop (please ensure that your school has given you sufficient administrator rights to be able to change your IP/network settings so that you can connect to the local network onsite) – bring a power adaptor and a projector adaptor (if Mac users) Your school curriculum documents, action plans and or documentation that you are willing to share as part of your IB journey.
