IIEE 19th NMRC Updating fellow electrical engineers in the academe regarding the new trends of education in the Philippines, the Institute of Integrated Electrical Engineers of the Philippines, Incorporated Cagayan de Oro Chapter (IIEE – CDO) conducted an Academe Forum during the 19th Northern Mindanao Regional Conference (19th NMRC) last April 10, 2015. The event was participated by more than 20 fellow electrical engineers from the academe coming from IIEE Region 8. To grace the event two (2) distinguished speakers from the IIEE national shared their expertise on the topics: “Washington Accord” by Engr. Florigo C. Varona and “Impact of Outcomes Based Education (OBE) to the Electrical Engineering Board Exam” by Dr. Cirilo C. Calibjo. With the topics shared by the experts participants during the forum were able to learn that the Philippines Engineering Education is changing to an international level to compete with rest of the ASEAN nation. The old style teachers based education will now be changed to an Outcomes Based Education where teaching techniques employed are based on the student’s outcomes.
During the 19th Northern Mindanao Regional Conference a Parallel Activity of IIEE – CDO called “The Mindanao Power Forum Update III”with the theme “Privatizing Agus – Pulangi: Balancing the Interest of Stakeholders in Mindanao Grid”, were conducted.
