The Project Management Office will conduct a 2-day crash course on Cooperativism on Nov.8/9 at the PMO office in San Francisco, Agusan del Sur. The session is conducted in line with the thrust of the PMO to provide continuing education to the Community Organizers of the Implementing NGO Partners (AID, LEAF, REACH and SSOFHDEV). In this case, Cooperativism.
The seminar will tackle 2 general areas on cooperativism, namely, Pre-Membership Education Seminar and Cooperative Directorship. The specific topics will include the history of cooperative movement (Philippine experience), fundamental concept of cooperatives, legal basis of cooperatives in the Philippines, types of cooperatives, cooperative structure and roles and functions of officers and members, among others.
Marcy, Boyax and Wengweng (PMO Specialists) will provide the input during the sessions. Yet we also encourage all the Community Organizers to do some research and advance reading on the abovementioned topics before coming to the sessions. (Try the Google search engine). The knowledge you bring to the sessions will contribute in meeting the objective of the activity.
Please charge your travel/transportation and meal expenses to your travel allowance. Lodging will be at the PMO office. Sessions will start at 8 in the morning and will end at 9:30 in the evening. We recommend that you come on the evening of 7 November so that you can rest well before the sessions start. No early departures on November 9 please.
If you have suggestions or clarifications about the activity, please post it in the space reserved for comments below or text or email to pbaang@yahoo.com. You may also raise your clarifications to the PMO specialists.
