  • ISPSC, ASIST ink partnership to advance TLE education and application

    The Ilocos Sur Polytechnic State College (ISPSC) and Abra State Institute of Sciences and Technology (ASIST) formally launched the Seminar for Practical and Reflective Knowledge in Technology and Livelihood Education (SPARK-TLE) project through a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) signing held earlier today at the ASIST- Lagangilang Campus.

    The collaborative project serves as a three-year joint venture that aims to strengthen the teaching, learning, and practical application of Technology and Livelihood Education (TLE), specifically in the fields of Industrial Arts, Foods, ICT, and Agriculture.

    Multiple initiatives, including the formulation of new learning modules, conduct of seminars, experiential learning for students and teachers, and extension programs, are set to take place under the project’s banner.

    ISPSC President Mario P. Obrero highlighted the importance of the program in furthering sustainable development through collaborative relations with partners.

    “Through this project, we will be able to attain our common objectives and outcomes that will really make our two institutions more capable of serving our clients, our students, and our communities through TLE,” Dr. Obrero said during his message of support.

    Meanwhile, ASIST President Dr. Gregorio T. Turqueza Jr. expressed his gratitude and high hopes for the project and the partnership.

    “This collaboration will catapult both institutions to meet their needs in higher education. As institutions, we cannot stand alone — we need collaborators, and ISPSC has always been a competent collaborator for ASIST,” Dr. Turqueza stated.

    The collaborative project emphasizes ISPSC’s continued efforts to improve instruction and education across all of its campuses and to expand partnerships in order to better accommodate the needs of the college community. (Paul Angelo Juan)
