The Philippine Consulate General and the Philippine Overseas Labor Office will be offering five free training courses for the second quarter of 2012.
Computer Building & Fixing, which is open only to graduates of Basic Computer Operations II, will be held for six Saturdays from April 14 to May 19, 5pm to 8:30pm, under instructor Mar Masilungan.
Baking class will be conducted by instructor Jojo Sotto for six Saturdays, from April 14 to May 19, 1pm to 7pm.
The Domestic Refrigeration & Air-condition Mechanic will be handled by instructor Rogelio Guinocor from 8:30am to 12:30pm, from April 14 to May 19.
Zaldy Quebral will be teaching the Basic Computer Operations I for six Sundays from April 15 to May 20, 1pm to 5pm.
Meanwhile, Basic Mandarin will be conducted by Rey Garcia, also on Sundays from April 15 to May 20, 1pm to 5pm.
Interested applicants should register at the POLO office at the ground floor of Marianas Business Plaza and bring their CW receipt or the receiving copy from USCIS, valid passport, and one ID picture.
With the approaching last day of the Consulate, welfare officer Julie Fabian said yesterday that they released their second quarter schedule early to maximize the time they have left on island.
The Consulate has announced that its last day of services to the public is on Oct. 31, a Wednesday.
“We want to make up for the classes that we won’t be able to offer on the last quarter of 2012 since we’ll be shutting down in a few months,” Fabian told Saipan Tribune.
Fabian added that they are expecting more enrollees in this quarter’s training courses, particularly in the Baking and Domestic Refrigeration classes.
“We encourage the community to take advantage of our free training courses to gain additional skills that are useful and practical,” said Fabian.
