On June 5, 2025, we brought together industry leaders, alumni, and experts for the IWEP Stakeholders Forum to tackle the evolving needs of ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ญ Philippine agriculture, with a strong focus on crop protection ๐Ÿ›๐ŸŒฑ.
๐Ÿ“Š The program kicked off with a presentation of our recent online survey results, followed by insightful overviews from our distinguished speakers on the current status of the crop protection industry.
๐Ÿ’ฌ Industry representatives also shared valuable perspectives on emerging trends and workforce demands in the field.
๐Ÿง  A key highlight was the small group workshop, where participants identified the core competencies our graduates need to succeed. During the priority setting and synthesis session, IWEP presented potential new course offerings based on these collaborative insights.
๐Ÿ“š Stakeholders later joined a second workshop to recommend the essential components of these future-ready courses.
Huge thanks to all our speakers, facilitators, and participants for your time, expertise, and dedication to shaping the future of Philippine agriculture! ๐ŸŒพ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ญ
