In a statement, the Davao Light said these equipment are in support of the K to 12 program implementation of Department of Education 11 (DepEd 11).
This training facility dubbed as “e.Lab” or Electrical Laboratory is intended for the Technical Vocational (TechVoc) Strand that caters to students who are interested to learn the skills in Electrical Installation and Maintenance (EIM). This facility will help prepare and equip the learners to acquire the skill of electricians that will open doors for employment once they pass the National Certification (NC) II.
Among the schools from Davao City that benefit the prject are Don Enrique Bustamante National High School, Emilio Ramos National High School, and A.L. Navarro National High School while Don Manuel A. Javellana National High School is the recipient in Panabo City.
Davao Light's Reputation Enhancement Department Manager Fermin Edillon said the company and DepEd 11 have been long-term partners and they will continue to provide support in any way we can, especially in the area of education.
" I believe that we all know the importance of available and improved facilities to aid in the education of the next generation of leaders,” , he said.
For Emilio Ramo National High School Principal, Rueter Pineda Diel, the vision of the school is to produce National Certification II graduates. He urged everyone to be selfless and hardworking to make their vision come true.
Meanwhile, AL Navarro National High School Principal Efren Butlig, thanked Davao Light for the refurbished EIM laboratory, tools, and equipment they received.
“Because this is the standard EIM laboratory, the students will learn the standard protocol as electricians, not only in handling the tools and equipment but also in handling themselves as professionals,” he said.
Davao Light and Aboitiz Foundation Inc. fully supports DepEd’s aim to provide quality education which is also one of the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals.
