The Market Monitor Minding the Nation's Business
Isuzu Philippines Corporation (IPC) and the Jacobo Z. Gonzales Memorial School of Arts & Trade (JZGMSAT) signed a memorandum of agreement renewing its partnership for quality education and knowledge-sharing.
Led by IPC president Tetsuya Fujita and IPC executive vice president Shojiro Sakoda, they turned over a new 4-post lifter with wheel aligner, and one unit of Isuzu D-Max pick-up, to Tesda Calabarzon regional director Baron Jose Lagran and JZGMSAT vocational school administrator Benito Reyes.
“It’s been six years since we started this partnership, and the continuous collaboration between IPC and JZGMSAT says a lot about the importance and sustainability of this program. More than the equipment we provided, it’s the culture of knowledge sharing that’s more important, for us to be able to share with them our expertise on Diesel Engine Technology, so the trainees can have more advantage when the graduate,” said Fujita.
Much like its auto mechanic school in Tacloban, IPC also includes in the MOA a specialized training program covering topics like diesel engine technology, common rail fuel system and engine management system as part of the company’s knowledge-sharing initiatives.
