𝗡𝗘𝗪𝗦 | MMSU faculty complete home care training in China

By Ian Paul Villanueva

Five faculty members of Mariano Marcos State University (MMSU) successfully completed a 12-day home care services training program at the Guangxi Health Science College (GXHSC) in Nanning City, China, paving the way for the first Transnational Higher Education program in Region 1.

Held from July 20 to 31, the specialized training “Sino-Philippine Ingenuity Nourish New Life - Advanced Training Course for Teachers on Postpartum Confinement Meal Preparation (Maternal & Infant Care)” aimed to review and compare the maternal and infant care curricula and formulate unified teaching standards of MMSU and GXHSC.

Participating in the course were Prof. Felicitas Sanculi, Prof. Judelyn Mandac, and Ms. Christine Quiapo of the College of Industrial Technology (CIT), as well as Ms. Alma Asuncion and Ms. Shaira Vita Mae Adviento of the College of Teacher Education.

As partner institutions, MMSU and GXHSC are set to offer a Bachelor of Homecare Services Technology (BHST), a ladderized four-year program to be based at the CIT Paoay Campus.

MMSU President Virgilio Julius P. Manzano, Jr., described the training as a significant step toward the eventual offering of the BHST program in the university. Earlier this month, Dr. Manzano visited the Paoay campus to monitor the ongoing construction of a laboratory facility, which will house the new degree program.

“We are deeply grateful to the Guangxi Health Science College for its generous support and shared vision,” Dr. Manzano remarked. “The training not only strengthened our faculty members, but more importantly, our growing partnership with GXHSC.”
