from page 1... Trinitians emerge as topnotchers in the Real Estate boards

“The result of REM examination is another milestone for the CBMA. Our students made it into Top 10, especially the Top 1 rank. This will serve as an inspiration to our students who will also take the board examination in the future,” said Dr. Rosas.

Ms. Mazon shared a testimony for their recognition and graduation ball on May 25, where she narrated that she did not imagine herself being in the field of real estate nor even taking the boards and earning the topnotcher’s spot. ‘

Compared to her blockmates, she was not engaged in any form of selling or marketing but had some familiarity in the profession due to her daily interactions with brokers in her current job in land acquisition.

“I didn’t imagine I could potentially be at the other side of the negotiating table, until I took this course. Now, I have an alternative career in the future,” she mentioned in her speech.

She also extended her gratitude to their REM professors and acknowledged the help of Dr. Karen Uy, their department chair.

TUA’s passing rate for April 2022 REBLE came to 66.36% with 144 out of 217 passers. Consistently, REM program produced set of topnotchers from June 2019 with 86.67% and August 2019 Licensure Examination for Real Estate Appraisers (LEREA) with 68.18% passing rate.

The College of Allied Health Sciences (CAHS) conducted the first Stethoscope and Pinning Ceremony for Batch 2022 of Respiratory Therapy (RT) program in TUA University Chapel with the 2021 Most Outstanding Respiratory Therapist as the guest speaker, Mr. Michael Jorge R. Fulgencio, RTRP last March 26, 2022.

The students who completed and passed the requirements for their degree program were Earl Eric Delima, Twittle Mheel Dizon, and Karsten Tolentino. The ceremony was attended by students’ family members, RT faculty and Society of Aspiring Respiratory Therapist (SART) officers.

Dr. Rufo Aggarao, Dean of CAHS, shared facts about the internship program to the candidates who received their stethoscope and pin, and reminded them that they are the one doing the actual examination to the patients once deployed in the hospital. He also motivated the lower classmen to reach fourth year to be able to participate in the stethoscope and pinning ceremony.

Dr. Noel Tiburcio, the program chair of Respiratory Therapy, reminisced the challenges of the field during the pandemic where mostly respiratory therapists are also on the frontline. He revealed that this somehow caused less enrollees in the program. However, it was rectified through advertisement and career immersion to convince both the parents and students.

In his inspirational message, Mr. Fulgencio stressed the importance of respiratory therapists.

“Breathe. Lead. Believe that once a respiratory therapist thrives, a life survives,’ he said.The candidates also had a chance to share their experiences in this pandemic and plans after they graduated in the course.
