And just like any other story, this one ended, too. ❤️
Honestly, taking over the Philippine Institute for Supply Management (PISM) Cebu Chapter last December without a definite University partner was the kind of pressure I never thought I'd inherit. Gladly, it's true that you meet people for a reason. With my previous connection with the University of the Visayas as a part-time instructor and the full support of PISM National and SOFSM, forming a new alliance with the University of the Visayas was made possible. Both institutions worked hand in hand to ensure this Batch of learners get the world-class training they deserve.
My heartfelt appreciation goes to the University of the Visayas for welcoming us with open arms, to my fellow PISM Officers and Board of Trustees for your relentless support since Day 1, to Batch 15 and member companies for your continued trust in PISM, to my loved ones for understanding my hectic and at times, conflicting schedules, to the Almighty for the guidance, strength, and compassion every step of the way.
As an Iskolar ng Bayan, my passion has always been to serve my immediate community, I am grateful that through Virginia and PISM I am able to serve, influence, and do what I'm passionate about. For the upliftment of our profession, onwards we go! ❤️
Congratulations, Batch 15! 🎉
