🤝 MOA Signing for Community Development in Barangay Cambuac Sur! 🏡✨

On June 4, 2025, Bohol Island State University – Main Campus (BISU-MC) officially signed a Memorandum of Agreement with Barangay Cambuac Sur, Sikatuna, Bohol, marking the launch of two key extension initiatives focused on infrastructure development and women’s empowerment.

Led by Dr. Ruel Pangiligan, the Drafting Technology Department will provide architectural design plans for the barangay’s proposed infrastructure projects, including multi-purpose halls, and community centers—ensuring structurally sound, safe, and sustainable community facilities.

Meanwhile, under the leadership of Mrs. Genelina G. Alfarero, the Food Technology Department will implement Project FLARE (Food Livelihood Advancement for Resilient Empowered Women) in partnership with the Barangay Cambuac Sur Women’s Association. This initiative aims to equip women with skills in food processing, safety, packaging, and entrepreneurship—fostering sustainable livelihood opportunities.

The MOA signing reflects a shared commitment to holistic community development, aligning academic expertise with local needs for a stronger, more resilient Barangay Cambuac Sur. 🌱💡👩‍🍳📐

🔌 Day 2 of Motor Control Training: Building Skills and Confidence! 🔌

On the second day of training, Dr. Ribomapil Nacorda kicked off the morning session by emphasizing the importance of proper standard sizing for motor control components to ensure safety and efficiency. In the afternoon, Dr. Lloyd Tejano delivered an engaging discussion on Forward-Reverse Motor Control Systems, explaining how motor direction is controlled and the critical role of interlocks to prevent hazards. After the theory, trainees put their knowledge into practice by performing forward-reverse motor control operations on the training stations. This combination of expert instruction and hands-on experience empowered participants with the skills and confidence needed to design, operate, and troubleshoot motor control circuits effectively. ⚙️💡

🚀 Kicking Off Project LAMDAGI with Success! ⚙️✨

On May 24, 2025, Bohol Island State University – Main Campus launched the first session of Project LAMDAGI at the Electrical Technology Building, in partnership with IIEE Bohol Chapter. The whole-day training focused on Motor Control Systems, led by Mr. Jeff Madera and Mr. Junel Tagud.

In the morning, participants gained foundational knowledge on motor control components and safety standards, while the afternoon was dedicated to hands-on application. Trainees successfully performed the Start-Stop Motor Control Operation, applying their newly acquired skills in wiring and circuit testing. 💡👨‍🔧👩‍🔧

With 20 IIEE members actively engaged, the session marked a strong start to the series, empowering local electrical practitioners through industry-relevant and practical learning.
