PANABO CITY – The Bachelor of Public Administration (BPA) program, under Davao del Norte State College’s Institute of Leadership, Governance, and Continuing Studies (DNSC-ILEGG), held a stakeholders’ consultation on January 23, 2025, at the DNSC Gender and Development (GAD) Building Conference Room.
The consultation aimed to gather insights and feedback for the proposed revision of the BPA curriculum. It brought together a diverse group of participants, including Vice President for Academic Affairs Girley S. Gumanao, ILEGG Dean Florie Ann L. Fermil, BPA Program Chair Glenne B. Lagura, faculty members from ILEGG, representatives from the public and private sectors, BPA alumni, student representatives, and invited parents.
