The Industrial Technician Program (ITP) is CITE's centerpiece program. It integrates technical training with human formation activities. It is designed to improve the participants' attitude towards work and productivity, as well as towards his family, society and life itself. The ITP is a three-year, post-secondary, non-degree program meant to produce well-trained, middle-level manpower for industry and entrepreneurial work. As a training program, it is pedagogic in approach conducted through classroom lectures, laboratory and workshop practice and actual industrial internship. It is designed to keep pace with the advances in industrial technology and follow internationally-accepted standards. It has five specializations; namely, Electromechanics, Industrial Electronics, Mechanical, and Information. As a formation program, it gives much importance to values and spiritual education meant to equip participants with a high sense of professionalism and a deep Christian and social-oriented spirit. The ITP aims to contribute to the country's progress and development by providing industry with competent technicians. The program hopes not only to contribute to the solution of unemployment but also to create a new breed of technicians trained in global standards. The program participants are male youth belonging to the lower stratum of the society who have the ability for a tertiary education but cannot afford to do so. With the scholarship given to them, these young people are provided the access to capability-building that can alter the economic plight of their poor families. Most of CITE graduates were assured of employment even before graduation in well-established companies in Visayas and Mindanao. Making the right choices in life is important to succeed in our careers. Some of our choices shape up who we are in the future. At the Center for Industrial Technology and Enterprise (CITE), we hone our students to be morally upright, physically fit, and intellectually sound individuals enabling them to take the global challenge for excellence at work and business. Having been provided with the finest technical training that brings out the best in them, our graduates amassed knowledge and learned the skills that truly match the industry needs at par excellence. We boast of our state-of-the-art facilities, one-on-one tutorial sessions, formative activities, and a good reputation that earns the trust of our scholarship grantors, industry partners, and peers, among others. Our hallmark programs are the three-year technician courses which employ the Dual Training System (DTS) allowing students to learn and earn at the same time in a favorable set-up for all parties involved.
