Governor Eugenio Jose Lacson Monday, June 26, lauded the ICT scholars of the provincial government of Negros Occidental for developing excellent ICT outputs, as part of their school requirements at STI West Negros University in Bacolod City.
The scholars are grantees of the ICT Scholarship Program of the Capitol, taking up BS Information Technology. They conceptualized and developed systems showcasing their knowledge in software programming and applications.
They also presented their ICT projects to Lacson and to the executives of STI-WNU, led by its executive vice president Ryan Mark Molina, and Negros Occidental Scholarship Program head Karen Dinsay.
Lacson said in a Capitol press release that he is pleased to see the results of the scholars’ efforts, commitment, and steadfast pursuit of excellence in the field of information and communications technology.
“The outputs you presented today are more than just technology advances; they represent the impact you are capable of making on society,” Lacson told the scholars during the program this afternoon, June 26. “May you all advance to be confident individuals, responsible citizens, and effective contributors to our community, our province, and the world”.
The governor also thanked the STI-WNU for providing assistance and opportunities to the young learners. He assured that the provincial government will do its best to make sure that scholarships and other programs will be responsive to the needs of the Negrense youth. ||
