The National Telehealth Center, through its Central Operations Coordinator Dr. Alex Gavino, and Telehealth Nurse Ms. Pia Athena Tolentino, participated in the Charter Workshop of the telecentre.org-Philippine Community e-Center Academy (tPCA) held at The Legend Villas, Mandaluyong City last June 4-6, 2008.
The CeC Roadmap specifically cites the establishment of a CeC academy as one priority strategy supporting the capacity-building goal of the Philippine CeC Program which is to ensure the availability ofcompetent knowledge workers in every Community e-Center. The tPCA is a consortium of ICT4D and CeC capability-building and content development institutions (government, private and academic) who collaborate towards the timely delivery of relevant, useful and quality capability building programs for CeC knowledge workers. Along with CICT, the following are among the consortium partners: 1) Development Academy of the Philippines (DAP); 2) Asian Institute of Journalism and Communication (AIJC); 3) UP-National Telehealth Center; 4) University of the Philippines Open University (UPOU); 5) Philippine Rice Research Institute (PhilRice) Open Academy for Agriculture; 6) Intel Technology Philippines, Inc.; 6)Microsoft Philippines, Inc.; and 8) telecentre.org.
The objectives of the workshop were: 1) to organize the tPCA consortium; 2) to formulate the tPCA Charter; and 3) to formulate an action plan for 1 year. The workshop was composed of 4 modules, specifically: 1) Validation of the tPCA Purpose (Vision, Mission, Functions, Components and Roles); 2) Organizational Options and Relationships; 3) Resource Generation and Management; 4) Accreditation Procedures and Standards, Organizational Issues and Action Planning Exercise.
After the 3-day session, certain agreements were reached and the draft of the Charter shall be made available to the Charter members later this month. Hopefully, the Charter will be ratified by August 2008.
This endeavor emphasizes the NThC's commitment in enhancing Community e-Center services through e-Health.
