TRU was presented with the Lyn Howes Award at a ceremony in Victoria Feb. 8 in recognition of the university’s innovation, work and dedication in the area of international student services.

The award, named for Lyn Howes, a founding member of the Council who was known for her unfailing commitment to the development of quality and professional standards, was given to TRU by the national accreditation association, the Canada Language Council (CLC), whose Institution Accreditation Board nominates institutions based on the assessment resulting from a formal review conducted during its official accreditation visit.

TRU World Associate Director, Vera Wojna, who accepted the award on behalf of the university, said, “I would like to congratulate all of my colleagues in TRU World for the role they individually and collectively played in the support and delivery of services at the level that deserved national recognition by our fellow colleagues.”
