Sinag gets Trusted Supplier recognition from FAITH (First Asia Institute of Technology and Humanities) in Batangas
First Asia Institute of Technology and Humanities (FAITH) is one of the leading educational institutions in Batangas province. This Tanauan based tertiary level institution is one of Sinag’s most esteemed client-partners and as they celebrated their 16th founding anniversary last September 9, 2016, FAITH also held its annual Industry Partners Appreciation Day. Now on its third year, FAITH’s Industry Partners Appreciation has been held every September as a way for FAITH to formally recognize its industry and institutional partners. These include partner businesses and corporations (those who give scholarship programs, do tie-up activities with FAITH, and corporations where FAITH students do their internships and apply for jobs after graduation), local government institutions and officials, media partners as well as their trusted and top suppliers like Sinag Publishing and Printing Services. This year’s event was held at the FAITH Multipurpose Hall inside the campus and was hosted by FAITH VP for Marketing, Ms. Rosalind Landicho. The event presentation was given by their VP for Student Services, Ms. Rosario B. Cesario and the certificates of appreciation to the industry/institution partners were personally awarded both by FAITH’s Managing Director, Juan P. Lozano and FAITH President, Saturnino G. Belen. Sinag has been fortunate enough to receive this coveted recognition from FAITH since the Partners Appreciation Day program was started in 2013. Here’s to looking forward to more years of fruitful collaboration with this prestigious Batangas institution. Salamat po sa patuloy na pagtitiwala ninyo! |
