On June 4-6, 2026, Saint Joseph College held its annual In-Service Training (INSET) Program in preparation for the Academic Year 2026-2027 at the CCN Mini Theater.
The SJC INSET 2026, in connection with its theme, “The Catholic School at the Service of the Church and Society,” fostered integral dedication and excellence aligned with the evangelizing mission of the Church through quality Christian education.
Throughout its 3-day course, a series of sessions and workshops were given to the teaching and non-teaching personnel. It featured group sharing, discussion, and reflection, which allowed the staff to exchange ideas, experiences, and practices. This manifested a shared understanding of institutional direction, a profound sense of mission, and co-responsibility in providing excellent service in the noble work of Catholic education.
The activity strengthened not just the personnel’s knowledge and skills but also cultivated a deeper understanding of one’s own role. Together, through the intercession of Saint Joseph, we continue to learn, serve, and lead—committed to providing quality education centered on Christ.
