Full operations of the City College of Davao (CCD) is expected next school year.
In its latest update the City Information Office (CIO) said CCD is set to begin accepting enrollees for the next school year. An announcement will be made officially.
“Ang admin operations nagsugod na and last update is by next year na school year magdawat na sila ug enrollees. Karon ang admin operations nagdagan na ug kung unsa ang kinahanglan para sa full operation next year,” said Harvey Lanticse, CIO head, over Davao City Disaster Radio (DCDR) on Tuesday.
The construction of the CCD in a 5-hectare property of the Bureau of Plant Industry (BPI) near the University of the Philippines-Mindanao (UP-Mindanao) in Bago Oshiro, Mintal started this year as announced by Councilor Pilar Braga, who is the proponent of the resolution, last year.
In 2020, the City Council approved through a resolution, which was certified by former Mayor Sara Duterte as urgent, for the establishment of the CCD to cater to the less privileged.
CCD will offer five courses: Bachelor of Special Needs Education (BSNEd), Bachelor of Technical-Vocational Teacher Education (BTVTEd), Bachelor of Physical Education (BPEd), Bachelor of Science in Entrepreneurship (BS Entrep), and Bachelor of Arts in English or Filipino.
It is also targeting 1,000 working students in four senior high schools such as the Davao City National High School, Sta. Ana National High School, Crossing Bayabas National High School, and Bangoy National High School.
