Hon. Ron P. Salo, Representative of the Kabayan Party List of the 18th Congress of the Republic of the Philippines, is the invited speaker for the exercises.

He emphasized that education should not only be knowledge based, but also competency based in which he defined as “Education 4.0.” This and the 3Cs (Critical Thinking, Competency, and Character) are the country’s two prong solution to one of the problems in education – under/unemployment and job skills mismatch.

“I'm also confident that you will all become assets to this country and pro-actively contribute to our nation building. I have faith in you graduates of TSU that all of you will become agents of positive change in our society,” he concluded.

Meanwhile, the Baccalaureate Services were held on January 23 with Fr. Jowi Mendoza, the Mass Celebrant, and guest speaker Hon. Melissa P. Yeung-Yap, TSU Board of Regents Representative of the Higher and Technical Education, CHED and CEO of Katinko (Greenstone Pharmaceutical).  [Jodie Andrea G. Pangilinan]
