Share

The Private Sector Advisory Council (PSAC) Jobs and Education cluster, headed by Go Negosyo’s Joey Concepcion, and AC Education and Private Sector Jobs and Skills Corporation (PCORP) Chair Fred Ayala, recently led the signing of a Memorandum of Agreement between the Civil Service Commission (CSC), PCORP, and the National University of Singapore Institute of Systems Science (NUS-ISS). The MOA formalizes a public-private partnership agreement to enhance the digital competencies of mid-to-senior-level civil servants in the Philippines through intensive training via the CSC’s Civil Service Institute’s Digital Leadership Programme (DLP).

The signing was held last April 24, 2025, at the Malacañang Palace and was witnessed by Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. In the photo are (from left) NUS-ISS’s Ramon Jocson, PSAC Strategic Convener Sabin Aboitiz James Chan, Temasek Foundation Senior Director Yong Kiat James Chan, PSAC Jobs Lead Joey Concepcion, PSAC Education Lead Alfredo Ayala, Philippines President Ferdinand Marcos Jr., CSC Chair Marilyn Barua-Yap, PSAC Jobs ans Education Principal Tessie Sy Coson, Ayala Foundation Chair Fernando Zobel de Ayala, PSAC Digital Lead Myla Villanueva, and NUS President Prof. Tan Eng Chye.
