MANILA, Philippines — The Department of Education on Tuesday announced its intention to fund the connectivity and communication expenses of both its teaching and non-teaching staff.
In a memo posted to Education Undersecretary Alain Pascua’s Facebook page, the agency said it is “preparing for the provision for monthly connectivity and communications expense from the major telecommunications companies for employees across the Department.”
“In order to qualify for the provision for connectivity and communications expense and to determine the appropriate quantities, all regional , division and school employees (teaching and non-teaching) are tasked to register and update their information in the DepEd Commons,” it further said.
