JANUARY 30—The Northwest Samar State University College of Computing and Information Systems (NWSSU CCIS) launched the second batch of its “Digital Empowerment: Enhancing LGU Capacities Through ICT Literacy” program today. This initiative aims to equip Sto. Niño local government personnel with essential digital skills, building on the success of the first batch held last week.

The three-day training, which will run until February 1 at the CCIS Computer Laboratory, covers Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. These daily sessions are designed to improve efficiency in governance and public service delivery, addressing specific gaps in the LGUs’ technological capabilities. Interactive activities, group discussions, and collaborative exercises ensure practical learning.

By providing LGUs with tools to navigate digital challenges, NWSSU strengthens its partnership with local governance bodies. Post-training support, including mentorship and resource access, will further solidify participants’ progress, marking a significant milestone in NWSSU’s extension initiatives.
