During the meeting, Dr. Bulay-og collected suggestions from the LGU officials regarding training sessions and workshops that they deem are needed by the community.
The LGU officials presented a list of community-requested training, including those involved with dairy processing, electrical repair and maintenance, plumbing, housekeeping, butchery, masonry, welding, and landscaping, to name a few.
Aside from USTP faculty members, Dr. Bulay-og also emphasized the involvement of other government entities in the conduct of said training sessions, including the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA).
