ICCC administrator Maria Mathilde T. Octavio said she’s positive there will be more job opportunities for the graduates because of their competence and hardwork.

“Skills are very important in looking for a good career and I’m confident that our students have that. It’s because they’re already exposed to work experiences since they had their internship. I’m also expecting that some of them will be working for our city government,” Octavio added. (Thessalonia Ordales/Iloilo City PIO)
