MANILA, Feb. 05 (PIA)–Nipahimangno ang Department of Education (DepEd) nga walay pagabayaran ang mga estudyante sa early registration nga nagsugod niadtong Enero 30 alang sa academic school year 2016-2017.
Matud pa ni DepEd Assistant Secretary Tonisito Umali, kinahanglan lamang dalhon sa mga ginikanan o estudyante ang ilang mga birth certificate alang sa mga mosulod sa kindergarten ug report card usab alang sa mga mosulod sa Grade 1.
Subling gi-awhag ni Umali ang mga ginikanan nga adunay anak nga naa sa 5 taman 6 anyos nga mosalmot sa early registration campaign sa ahensiya.
Gipasabot ni Umali nga tuyo sa maong programa nga mahibaw-an kun pila ka bata ang mosulod sa usa ka tunghaan, pila ka magtutudlo ang kinahanglanon ug unsang materyales ug pasilidad ang gamiton aron sayo kining mapangandaman sa DepEd.

Ideaspace Foundation held its first Competition Roadshow for the year 2016 in Bohol at Tambahayan Cafe, Palma Street, Tagbilaran City on January 29, 2016. Ideaspace Executive Director Diane Eustaquio and Technical Assistant for Startup Services Brenda Valerio facilitated the event.
The participants included local technology and startup advocates, freelancers, members of the Google Educators Group, students, the Fab Lab team and IT professionals from around Bohol. There was also a participant all the way from Siquijor.
Ms. Lai Biliran, Bohol ICT Council Chairperson and Ms. Nanette Arbon, DTI-Bohol Provincial Director were also present and showed their support for the tech community in the province.
A participant asked, “What should they expect from the program?” Eustaquio answered that they should expect to go through a very tough period in a pressure cooker environment.
“It is important to be ready to face the challenges of the life of an entreprenuer. It is not easy. IdeaSpace is there to help with the very difficult period of starting a business, but we will not be around all the time. It’s a life changing event.”, she added.
Ideaspace Foundation is looking for teams with synergy, proven track record, and the stamina to bring their startup idea to market. The roadshow allowed the participants to ask more about the details of startup competition and how to increase their chances of being selected into the acceleration phase.
Those accepted will have access to up to P1 million funding which will include up to P500,000 in cash, while non-cash benefits such as housing, transportation, incorporation, office space, communication, software support, trainings and classes, as well as mentoring from executives of companies under First Pacific. Their team must have at least two members in Manila full time for 4.5 months. They will also take classes at the Asian Institute of Management (AIM).
Starting 2016, Ideaspace adopted a new structure in which the foundation will no longer have equity in the startups that go into the incubation stage.

Students and volunteer speakers Ben, Roy, Nelson and Dalareich
Bohol ICT Council volunteers were in action again this week. This time at Holy Name University as part of the Rural Impact Sourcing initiative. An afternoon of presentation and Q&A was held to spread awareness of online job opportunities, now ripe for the taking by students and new graduates.
The show was led by tech entrepreneurs Jay Paul Aying and Ben Skelton. They expounded the variety of opportunities available.
Writers, educators, engineers, artists, virtual assistants and programmers are among those in demand for online work. The earning potential is attractive, for instance those teaching English to Japanese students via video chat are commonly receiving 750PHP per day part time.
The BICTC Team gave a practical how-to explaining where to go to find work online, how to make the difficult first steps and the kind of mindset to adopt to achieve success. Genesis Reonico of onlinejobsuniversity.com supplied expert up to date material for inclusion in the presentation.
Nelson Buena gave an account of his real world experience of online work in web design and social media management. His testimonial was invaluable proof to the audience that it can be done here, and done by someone who began from their position not long ago.
To bring the afternoon to an end local business heroes Roy Bayonas and Dalareich Polot recounted their trials and paths to eventual success. Developing electronics and chocolate products respectively, they both broke the news that their operations are expected to grow rapidly in 2016.
