Reinforcing its commitment to technological advancement and community engagement, the College of Engineering and Technology (CET) of Tarlac Agricultural University conducts a two-day Capacity Building Training-Workshop on Robotics for high school teachers of Gerona Western National High School on February 20 and 27, 2026. Spearheaded by CET Dean Dr. Ruben A. Parazo alongside selected faculty members, the extension initiative equips educators with foundational and applied knowledge in robotics, including basic electronics, programming, robot assembly, and classroom integration strategies. The hands-on sessions immerse participants in practical activities that translate theory into actual prototype development, ensuring that teachers gain both technical competence and instructional confidence.

The training highlights the vital role of robotics education in fostering critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, and innovation among learners skills essential in a rapidly evolving digital landscape. By equipping teachers with updated expertise and practical tools, CET creates a ripple effect that strengthens STEM education at the secondary level and opens broader opportunities for students in engineering and technology.ย 

Through this meaningful extension activity, TAU continues to bridge higher education and basic education institutions, advancing inclusive, community-centered development while championing excellence in science and technology.
