Aklan Info Tech Center Opens
Hon. Florencio T. Miraflores, Congressman of the Lone District of Aklan was the guest of honor in the recently concluded launching of the Information Technology Center (ITC) located at TESDA Aklan Provincial Office, Kalibo, Aklan. The said event was held on April 24, 2006, a day before the Aklan Golden Day Celebration.
The Information Technology Center is a collaborative project of the Congressional District Office, TESDA Aklan Provincial Office, and the Local Government Unit of Kalibo. The Center aims to provide Aklanons with wider access to computer education and other computer-based livelihood projects at a minimum cost.
The establishment of the Information Technology Center was pursued by TESDA Aklan led by then PD Lorena T. Yunque (now transferred to TESDA Iloilo) in 2005. TESDA-Aklan submitted project proposal to the Congressional District Office which merited the approval of Cong. Florencio T. Miraflores. The good Congressman strongly believes in the importance of computer education and information technology as support service to almost all industries in the province especially tourism activities.
Twenty staff members from LGU-Kalibo, TESDA Aklan and the Congressional Office were the initial participants of the Center’s program during the launching. They were oriented on computer education and livelihood training projects.
Further, on May 2, 2006 the month-long training on Computer Education and Livelihood Project was started. There were 72 trainees enrolled consisting of teachers from DepEd and employees from LGUs, Provincial Health Office, and Provincial Capitol who need to develop their competencies in computer education.
The trainers were from the Dynamic Educational Systems (DES) Corporation based in Makati City. Learning sessions consisted of ten modules that covered basic computer operation such as: MS Word, MS Excel, PowerPoint, Desktop Publishing, Data Base Management, Multimedia, Internet, Maintenance and Servicing.
