*SENTENCE COMBINATION*

Learning to combine ideas into more complex sentences is an important writing skill. There are many ways to do this. Try to combine the following three sentences. Do not use a semi-colon.

Sentence 1: Joane is a graduate of Athabasca University.
Sentence 2: Joane was recently hired by a major corporation.
Sentence 3: She will be lead their international unit.

Well done!

Here is another possibility (which uses an appositive and an infinitive):

"Joane, a graduate of Athabasca University, was recently hired by a major corporation to lead its international unit."
