San Pablo Colleges employ CAL for its computer integration program
29 April 2010
San Pablo Colleges inks a 3-year deal with Computer Assisted Learning Corporation (CAL) for its computer integration program. CAL will be setting up separate computer laboratories for grade school and high school departments with completely installed licensed softwares as well as providing them with computer modules and books.
The vision of this partnership is to elevate the standard of ICT education in the school, equipping students with knowledge that is at par with international standards. The commencement of the partnership coincides with San Pablo Colleges' need to upgrade its computer laboratories. The deal includes training their IT teachers, ensuring that both trainers and learners are equally equipped.
The signing was held in a modest conference room in San Pablo Colleges, led by Dr. Quintin Eala. The school president who is a surgeon by profession is coincidentally an alumnus of the old CAL. He was enrolled in short term computer courses during the 80's, and attended classes in CAL computer school in Araneta Avenue. "I recognize the need to keep up with technology. It's important that we don't stop learning." He narrated.
"We are looking forward to reaping the fruits of this partnership with San Pablo Colleges. We are truly hoping that with CAL's top of the line computer modules, they would be able to keep on attracting more enrollees." says Josephine Manalad, CAL Associate Vice president.
