To equip the skills and competencies of potential LGOO II apprentices for the 54th Batch of Apprenticeship Program, the DILG Rehiyon Dose conducted the General Orientation for its prospective 54th Batch of Apprentices for the Local Government Operations Officers (LGOOs) II and III. To show its valuable support to the apprentices, the DILG XII Regional Management Committee strategically planned out the conduct of the General Orientation.

The Activity ran in five consecutive days, starting on March 21-25, 2022, with a strict 8-to-5 routine. For this General Orientation, nine (9) apprentices were endorsed to undergo the screening process which will commence with the Aptitude Entrance Examination to be conducted online by the Local Government Academy on April 4, 2022. This is the 1st challenge that they have hurdle and once selected, they will proceed with the formal Apprenticeship Program.

 DILG XII Regional Director Josephine Cabrido-Leysa, CESO III, reminded our LGOOs to embrace the saying: “A dream doesn't become a reality through magic; it takes sweat, determination and hard work.” She encouraged all the apprentices to give their best and to work as a team.
