Many academic institutions are now adapting to a hybrid way of learning to respond to the present needs of both students and teachers. Aside from adopting an engaging learning platform, schools need to provide a means to ensure that students and teachers will be able to monitor and manage their learning progress anytime and anywhere.
While it has been a challenge to face these changes, one college in the northern province of Cagayan has proven that it can be easy to respond to the times and to students’ and teachers’ changing digital needs with the right technology partner who can provide them a complete ecosystem of solutions–like Globe.
Through the support of the country’s leading telco and digital solutions provider, Saint Joseph’s College of Baggao in San Jose, Baggao, has been able to efficiently implement a new, fully automated School Management System (SMS), a solution that streamlines interconnectivity between parents, students, teachers, cashier, registrar, and even the principal accurately and efficiently. This allows teachers to maintain and manage student records online; students to view their grades and account history anytime; and librarians to create automated book inventory for easy monitoring. SMS also enhances the enrollment experience as it allows the school registrar to enable an automated queuing system that can manage the assignment of teachers, sections and schedules.
“Our operations are now rationalized and more efficient. The delivery of our educational services have become cost-effective, accurate and timely,” says Rev. Fr. Gerard Ariston Perez, college president. “Thanks to Globe Business, our school management system provides our teachers, admin staff, students, and even parents with a platform that facilitates four key things: planning, operations, monitoring and control.”
Aside from ensuring St. Joseph’s management of school operations run smoothly, Globe Business has also equipped them with Google Workspace for Education to ensure that all their productivity tools are in one easy-to-use solution; enabling them to do their best work—together.
Globe Business’ Direct Internet also allows them to run their platforms, systems and learning tools smoothly, while its Managed Wifi has proven itself to be useful in providing easy connectivity to students and teachers so they can achieve maximum productivity and learning anywhere in the campus. Ultimately, Globe Business’ solutions have enabled St. Joseph’s to fulfill its mission amid today’s ever-changing digital landscape.
“With reliable and stable internet connection, we are able to keep a competitive advantage with our online programs and courses,” says Perez. “Thanks to our partnership with Globe, we are inspired to face a future where we are fully ready to efficiently respond to the growing needs of our students and our community.”
St. Joseph’s College of Baggao was established by the late Monsignor Felix Domingo, the retired Vicar General of the Archdiocese of Tuguegarao, in the 1950s. It became the foundation of the first Catholic learning institution in the municipality, opening doors of opportunity to the children of farmers who wanted to pursue their high school education.
Meanwhile, Globe is committed to provide schools like St. Joseph’s College of Baggao, its administrators, educators, and the students, the right digital and connectivity solutions–affordable connectivity, accessible platforms, and a safe learning environment for all–to help them adapt confidently in the rapidly evolving academic environment.
“Globe is a staunch advocate of quality education because we believe that with it, we can empower Filipinos to lead a brighter future for themselves and for the nation,” says KD Dizon, Globe Business MSME Group Head.
