Continuing the tradition of excellence, CatSU-JPIA hauls major distinctions in the NFJPIA Year-End Awards
StudentsThe tradition of excellence lives on as the Catanduanes State University - Junior Philippine Institute of Accountants (CatSU-JPIA) bagged major awards in the National Federation of Junior Philippine Institute of Accountants (NFJPIA) - Region V Council’s Year-End Awards (YEA) held at the Royal Emelina in Naga City on July 22, 2023.
Garnering the highest points among the 14 participating State Universities and Colleges (SUCs) and private Higher Education Institutions (HEIs), the CatSU-JPIA was hailed as the Most Outstanding Local Chapter across bicol for their consistent display of exemplary performance throughout the federation year 2022-2023.
With their high-level commitment to conducting local chapter activities and active participation in regional and national activities, CatSU-JPIA was also conferred with the awards as the Most Active Local Chapter and Most Productive Local Chapter in the NFJPIA – Region V community.
According to CatSU-JPIA President Darcy Rinsfer B. Tabor, who also won the Most Outstanding Local Chapter President, the key to winning these awards was the members’ commitment to fulfilling their duties and responsibilities as JPIA officers, underscoring their willingness to explore and carry out the organization’s projects.
He likewise commended the university’s all-out support when it comes to implementing their projects and letting them participate in various regional and national activities, which became their edge over other JPIA local chapters.
“The university’s support became our edge among the different local chapters. They allowed us to participate in different opportunities and activities in this federation year whereas others are somewhat strict and did not allow them to participate. ”
“This only show that CatSU and CatSU-JPIA can keep up or even become more productive, progressive, and competitive despite the prestige and calibers of different colleges and universities,” Tabor added.
Recognizing the legacy left by the previous federation officers of JPIA-CatSU, Tabor reflected on how it inspired his current administration to remain dedicated to bringing honor to the university and to continue the legacy of CatSU-JPIA.
“As the president of JPIA-CatSU, I always tell my officers to stand
firm to their sworn duties and responsibilities, explore, and expand our
networks to preserve and continue the legacy of JPIA-CatSU… These awards
reflect how the previous federation officers of JPIA-CatSU made an impact on
the dedication and commitment of this year’s federation officers, advisers, and
members,” Tabor recounted.
