CMC Leads Initial Coordination for the 41st ACSCU-ACI National Assembly
Before a national assembly takes the stage, a shared vision
must first take shape.
Before hundreds gather as one, institutions must lead as one.
Central Mindanao
Colleges (CMC), as Lead
Host,
together with Holy
Trinity College General Santos (HTC)
and Brokenshire College as
Co-Hosts, has taken the first major step toward the proposed 41st ACSCU-ACI National Assembly,
scheduled for June
15 to 17, 2027, in Davao City
The initial
coordination brought the three host institutions together to establish a common
direction, define responsibilities, identify priorities, and lay the groundwork
for a well-coordinated national gathering anchored in Christian Fellowship, Collaboration, and
Academic Excellence.
Discussions covered
the proposed Assembly theme and academic framework, hosting and committee
responsibilities, venue and accommodation requirements, registration and
delegate management, transportation and logistics, technical and documentation
needs, speakers and reactors, institutional presentations, fellowship
activities, resource generation and sponsorship, budget planning, and risk
management.
Central to the
preparation is the Master
Preparation and Monitoring Dashboard, envisioned as the
primary management mechanism for tracking workstreams, institutional
responsibilities, focal persons, timelines, progress, budget requirements,
risks, and succeeding actions. This system strengthens coordination, accountability, and timely
decision-making among the host institutions.
More importantly,
preparations remain anchored in the ACSCU-ACI Hosting Guide, which places faith
at the heart of every undertaking and calls the host institutions and partner
schools to approach the Assembly with Christian fellowship, humility, cooperation, excellence, and
service.
CMC also gratefully
acknowledges the continuing guidance and support of Dr. Miriam P. Narbarte, President of
ACSCU-ACI, and Mr. Angelito P. Pedreño, Executive
Director of ACSCU-ACI, as the host institutions begin this
important undertaking.
The preparations
reflect SDG 4: Quality
Education through
the advancement of academic exchange and institutional learning, SDG 5: Gender Equality through inclusive
participation and equitable opportunities for leadership and engagement,
and SDG 17:
Partnerships for the Goals through
meaningful collaboration among Christian higher education institutions.
The preparations may
have only begun, but the vision is already clear. Three Institutions. One National
Responsibility. One Shared Mission. With CMC taking the
lead alongside HTC and Brokenshire College, every plan moves toward a gathering
that will strengthen Christian
Higher Education, deepen institutional partnerships,
and advance excellence through service.
In June 2027, Davao City will not simply host an Assembly. It
will welcome a community united in faith, strengthened through fellowship, and
called to pursue excellence together.
The
work begins now. The vision moves forward. And through every step, one guiding
truth remains:
ABOVE ALL, PRAYER.
One Team.
One Vision.
One Assembly.
Faith leads. Excellence unites.
CMC moves forward.
ROAR WITH PURPOSE. LEAD WITH FAITH. RISE WITH EXCELLENCE.
