DEC gives computer training to 300 scholars
by Robbie Pangilinan
The Diliman Educational Corporation (DEC), through the Diliman Computer Technology Institute (DCTI), gives a 14-week computer training to 300 scholars of the Unitech Educational Program Corporation.
The students come from several public high schools and are sponsored by Unitech. DCTI will conduct training on Microsoft Windows Operating System, MS Office Word, Excel, and PowerPoint programs, web page design, Adobe Photoshop, and Macromedia Flash with its qualified professors and instructors.
Unitech, a family corporation that serves quality IT education to poor but deserving Filipino students through its accredited IT institutions, has helped hundreds of course participants enhance their skills through intensive hands-on exercises under the guidance of expert instructors.
DCTI, on the other hand, is the country’s only Open Source training and certification institute that is authorized by the Open Source Technology Association of the Philippines to conduct programs, offer courses, issue certifications to qualified practitioners, promote free Open Source software in the Philippines and market the training programs to students and corporate clients.
DCTI offers two- and four-year courses in computer science and computer technology and office management for high school graduates and adults.
DEC President Anna Dominique “Nikki” Coseteng, former senator of the Philippines, says, We are privilege to this partnership". RMP
