SOME 1,500 incoming freshman students took the two-day Pangasinan Polytechnic College (PPC) Admission Test (PPCAT) held last July 15 and 16 at the Provincial Training and Development Center (PTDC) but initially, only 400 applicants who passed the qualifying exam will receive free education for the PPC’s Bachelor of Public Administration major in Local Governance, Bachelor of Multi-Media Arts, Bachelor of Special Needs Education, and Bachelor of Science in Agribusiness.

However, Governor Ramon V. Guico III pleaded with PPC to accept 300 more scholars.

‘Nakiusap ang ating mahal na gobernador kung puwedeng taasan pa. It breaks his heart that we will not be able to accept all, and we said, We are open to receiving more. Yung kagustuhan niya talaga, yung makatulong sa mas nakakarami,’ PPC president Raymundo D. Rovillos said.

Aside from the PPCAT, the 25-day training/class for the NCII Electrical Installation and Maintenance also started on July 15 with 50 learners throughout Pangasinan.

Dr. Rovillos disclosed that with 175 slots, there will be several batches of training to accommodate said slots until the end of the year.

PPC will start its classes on August 12.

The establishment of PPC under the leadership of Gov. Ramon V. Guico III was expected to improve the physical, intellectual, and material well-being of Pangasinenses by acquiring higher occupational, technical, and professional instruction in the applied arts and sciences and learning related to the fields of commerce, business administration, and technology, among many others.
