LPU-B Enters Into MOA with Global Security Solutions – Korea

The partnership of the Lyceum of the Philippines University-Batangas and Global Security Solutions (GSS) in Korea is now binding and official.  Dr. Peter P. Laurel, LPU-B President, and Mr. Kim Kyung Rak, Asia Chairman of Global Security Solutions signed a Memorandum of Agreement on March 29, 2019.  Mr. Frederick C. Badillo, Senior Vice President and Vice President for Finance of LPU-B and Mr. Seo Boogeon, President of GSS-Korea stood as witnesses.

The Vice President for Academics and Research, Dr. Cecilia C. Pring, Dean of the College of Criminal Justice, Dr. Merwina Lou A. Bautista, Director of Admissions and Linkages, Dr. Olympio B. Garcia of LPU-B, General Manager of Overseas-GSS, Mr. Lim Yang Ho, and Manager of GSS – Philippine Headquarter, Mr. David Jeong attended the MOA signing ceremony.

This partnership is in line with the internationalization of education as both parties recognize that globalization, changing foreign policies and liberalization of trade in goods and services worldwide have created a climate for borderless teaching and learning. This phenomenon together with rapid developments in information and communications technology promotes access to foreign qualifications, degrees, certificates, and diplomas through a borderless environment.

Hence, LPU-B, by virtue of the said MOA, is duty bound to accept students for enrollment in the  Bachelor of Science in Criminology program as duly endorsed by Global Security Solutions pursuant to the relevant laws of the Republic of the Philippines, and the rules and regulations issued by the Commission on Higher Education (CHED). #TakeTheLead #LPUBatangas #InternationalizationInitiatives
