The College of Business Administration (CBA) conducted a two-day Mid-Year Planning and Review, and Syllabus Preparation, Submission, and Review Workshop on July 31 to August 1, 2025 at Emilia Oasis of Faith, Island Garden City of Samal.

With the recent release of the Universityโs Process Manual on Syllabus, this workshop served as a timely response to the call for standardization, continuous improvement, and instructional coherence.
The Objectives for this activity:
โข Equip faculty with updated knowledge on syllabus design;

By the end of the workshop, participants were able to:
