SCMBT's Grade 12 TVL-Maritime students are onboard the ship 2GO Travel in fulfilment of their work immersion requirements.

They are set to travel from port of Manila to Coron and vice versa.

This is made done in collaboration of Southwestern Maritime Business and Technology and 2GO Travel!

Meanwhile, several students are currently deployed in the Philippines Ports Authority Office, at the Calapan City Pier. Other students will also be deployed at the Philippine Coast Guard.

The work immersionists from 2Go Travels will be returning tomorrow (June 2, 2023), while those in the PPA and PCG still have to complete their 40 hours awaiting further updates.

As per DepEd Order No. 30 series of 2017, Work immersion is a required subject that has been incorporated into the curriculum. This subject will provide learners with the following opportunities:

1. ๐“๐จ ๐›๐ž๐œ๐จ๐ฆ๐ž ๐Ÿ๐š๐ฆ๐ข๐ฅ๐ข๐š๐ซ ๐ฐ๐ข๐ญ๐ก ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐ฐ๐จ๐ซ๐ค๐ฉ๐ฅ๐š๐œ๐ž. Learners will be able to observe and participate in the daily operations of a workplace, giving them a first-hand look at the different roles and responsibilities that are involved in different occupations. This will help them to better understand the expectations of employers and the skills that are required for success in the workplace.

Work immersion will give learners the opportunity to develop their soft skills, such as teamwork, communication, and problem-solving. They will also have the chance to gain experience in their chosen field, which will make them more competitive in the job market.

Learners will be able to apply the knowledge and skills that they have learned in school in a real-world setting. This will help them to solidify their understanding of the material and to develop their ability to think critically and solve problems.

Work immersion is a valuable opportunity for learners to gain hands-on experience and to prepare for their future careers. It is a key component of a well-rounded education that will help learners to succeed in the 21st century workforce.
