NSTP (CWTS) at APBF

NSTP (CWTS) tying up with "Alalay sa Pamilya at Bayan"

College/University Professors handling "Civic Welfare Training Service" (CWTS) under the National Service Training Program (NSTP) are hereby invited to tie up with "Alalay sa Pamilya at Bayan Foundation, Inc." (APBF) for the implementation of their CWTS classes. Credits could be given to CWTS students for volunteer teaching work in the various public schools covered by APBF. The course instructor will have to set up an evaluation system to standardize across all students and with his/her fellow CWTS professors the grading/crediting system to be applied to the students.

College professors may coordinate with the volunteer collaborators of APBF for the development of teaching modules for NSTP-specific programs. They may likewise coordinate with me, via aliza.racelis@up.edu.ph (Accounting & Finance professor, College of Business Administration, U.P., Diliman).

On January 23, 2002 the National Service Training Program was signed by President Gloria Macapagal
Arroyo into law. Republic Act 9163, the National Service Training Program (NSTP) Act of 2001is aimed at
enhancing civic consciousness and defense preparedness in the youth by developing the ethics of
service and patriotism while undergoing training in any of its three program components: the Reserve
Officers’ Training Corps, the Civic Welfare Training Service, and the Literacy Training Service. According
to RA 9163, these three components are specially designed to enhance the youth’s active contribution to
the general welfare.
