Academic Pathways Explored
Jaderick records in this section the advanced programs he attended but did not complete. Although these pathways did not culminate in a conferred degree, they remain important parts of his academic formation. Each program offered exposure to new knowledge, methodologies, and intellectual communities, shaping his perspective as a researcher and educator. By transparently including them here, he emphasizes that the pursuit of learning is not confined to diplomas but also to the formative experiences gained along the way.
