To discuss the institution's progress, future plans, and projects, Tiwi Community College (TCC) conducted a 2-day Strategic Planning and Team Building Activity with the theme “Strategic Planning for a Stronger Tiwi Community College.” The event was held on June 26–27, 2025, at the Patio De San Jose Resort and Convention Center in Malilipot, Albay, and was attended by TCC’s teaching and non-teaching staff.
The program formally opened with remarks from the TCC OIC President, Dr. Avelino C. Belleza, who mentioned faculty members holding doctorate and master's degrees.
“We are doing well as far as the qualification standards of our faculty,” Dr. Belleza said.
He then discussed four levels of strategy that can be used by the TCC staff, emphasized the importance of protecting students' privacy, and introduced his plan to implement a one-year timeline for TCC faculty to conduct group action and innovation research aimed at improving the institution and to secure its Certificate of Compliance from CHED.
The program continued with the first resource speaker, Ms. Sharmaine Kristine R. Carlet, Municipal Budget Officer, who discussed planning and budgeting. She emphasized the importance of Activity Proposals and Project Procurement Management Plans (PPMPs), explaining how to properly make them using the recommended format. A question-and-answer session followed, providing clarifications regarding the budgeting process for TCC's activities and projects.
Afterward, the teaching and non-teaching staff, grouped accordingly, crafted and presented their activity proposals and PPMPs for the upcoming academic year.
The evening program commenced with the oath-taking ceremony of the newly elected officers of the TCC Faculty Employees Association (FEA). This was followed by a message from Hon. Jerahmeel Clerigo, who shared the Local Government Unit (LGU) of Tiwi’s ongoing initiatives and future plans to support the continued growth and development of TCC. The program concluded with a social gathering.
