Education is among the most cherished values of the Filipino. We believe that education is the great equalizer, empowering not only the individual students, but through them also increasing the opportunities for growth for their families and communities.

Over in Isabela Province, the birthplace of the PNOC EC Scholarship Program, four new graduates hurdled their respective Licensure and Board Examinations, as the Company produced one Civil Engineer, one Registered Nurse, and two Registered Agriculturists. Three of our college scholars also graduated with Latin Honors, while two of our Senior High School scholars graduated with Honors. For Academic Year 2022 to 2023, 20 college and four high school students are still benefiting from the PNOC EC Isabela Scholarship Program.

In Zamboanga Sibugay Province, over 80 local school youths, mostly from the indigenous peoples’ communities, took the application examination for PNOC EC’s scholarship program for ZSP. 36 college scholars were maintained for Academic Year 2022 to 2023. Our scholars not only maintained the high academic standards under the scholarship agreement, but also served as volunteers in various PNOC EC community activities.
