To give emphasis to the 6th Office Administration Day’s theme "Personality Development: Empowering Individual to Improve and Develop Positive Attitude,” a seminar which was attended by the BS Office Administration students was conducted, Feb. 13.
The affair started off with a thanksgiving mass celebrated by Rev. Fr. Arthur Adricula, University Chaplain.
During the program, Satellite college director Dr. Adelfo Z.Vitudazo in his inspirational message highlighted the importance of one’s personality in finding a job in the future and he believes that the occasion could help students improve their personality and learn how to deal with others.
“This activity can help Office Administration students improve their individual personality to become better individuals in the future and also to develop camaraderie with their future acquaintances,” Virtudazo said.
The seminar was graced by Ms. Maila A. Martelino, MPA, Administrative Officer V at Mambusao District Hospital, who served as the resource speaker.
Her talk deepened the understanding and perception of students as she discussed different aspects of personality development such as proper manners and etiquette in the workplace. She emphasized how crucial personality is to one’s job.
At the end of the discussion, students raised questions during the open forum.
BSOA students also joined in the skills contest conducted where winners were given prizes. Donna Velez, BSOA-1A student, won in the shorthand contest while Rossele Mae Ponce, BSOA 2 student, bested her opponents in the keyboarding.
To add entertainment to the activity, selected students from the different sections showcased their talents in the mass dance presentation. They also enjoyed the fun and exciting games.
