Skyline University College, Sharjah and Ramon Magsaysay Memorial Colleges, South Cotabato have renewed and expanded their strategic partnership, benefiting nearly 20,000 students
-
Two tertiary private educational institutions in the UAE and in the Philippines have not only renewed their partnership born seven years ago in Dubai; but, extended this as well to enjoin another university affiliate that would benefit, at least for the remaining months of academic year 2024-2025, 19,907 students.
The renewed five-year Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), between Skyline University College-Sharjah (SUC-Sharjah) - founded in 1990, under the patronage of His Highness Dr Sheikh Sultan Bin Mohammed Al Qasimi, Member of the UAE Supreme Council and Ruler of Sharjah, and the Ramon Magsaysay Memorial Colleges-General Santos City (RMMC-General Santos) - established in 1957 as the Mindanao Vocational School in South Cotabato Province, by Atty. Eugenio Millado, was signed on Tuesday morning by SUC-Sharjah-Operations Deputy Vice Chancellor Naseem Abidi and RMMC-General Santos City President Kristoffer Franz Mari Millado.
With education having become borderless because of endless discoveries and innovation leading to endless streams of know-how, the first-ever MoU between SUC-Sharjah and RMMC-Koronadal City (South Cotabato) was also signed on Tuesday by Prof. Abidi and the President of the 16-year-old campus Ma. Andrea Patricia Millado.
