To kick start the year 2026, the RTWPB–Bicol is set to roll out productivity training programs aimed at strengthening the competitiveness, resilience, and sustainability of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in the Bicol Region.
As part of this initiative, RTWPB–Bicol invites MSMEs from Catanduanes and Masbate to participate in the upcoming Productivity Training Programs, designed to equip enterprises with practical tools and strategies to improve business operations and prepare for disruptions.
The scheduled training programs are as follows:
| | | |
| | January 29, 2026 8:00AM - 5:00PM | Function Hall 1, 6th Floor, Bldg. 1, ARDCI Hotel, San Roque, Virac, Catanduanes |
| Business Continuity and Resiliency Program (BCRP) | February 12, 2026 8:00AM - 5:00PM | Freshco Beach Resort, J.M. Robredo St., Blvd. Extension, Masbate City |
Participation in the training programs is free of charge. However, slots are limited to fifty (50) MSME representatives per province, and interested participants are encouraged to confirm attendance early.
“The Board encourages all MSMEs to take part in these training programs to enhance their productivity, strengthen business operations, and build resilience against future challenges,” says Francia N. Ocmer, Board Secretary VI.
MSME owners and representatives may call or text the official RTWPB–Bicol number at 0993-8005528 or email rtwpbbicol@gmail.com to register and confirm their participation.
