3 years and counting, CDO-ASSET’s Aim One Cagayan was successful (again).
Small Background
Aim One Cagayan is a three-day Leadership and Entrepreneurship Training Seminar for the youth of Cagayan de Oro. This event aims to form young individuals to become CATALYSTS of positive change, new LEADERS and conscientious ENTREPRENEURS.
This was first implemented on January 8-10, 2010. The speakers were Efren Penaflorida – CNN Hero, and Reese Fernandez – Co-founder and President of Rags2Riches.
The leaders who joined named their batch as “BULPAGS” or Bulawanong Paglantaw (Golden Perspective).
On January 28-30, 2011 marks the second AOC. The speakers were Sen. Francis “Chiz” Escudero and Noreen Bautista – Co-founder and Director of Jacinto and Lirio.
The delegates named their batch as “SERVIVORS” (We serve. We survive.)
For the last two years, the training has already been at Mapawa Nature Park.
The Format
The event is grounded on Leadership and Entrepreneurship. There are small and big group activities with facilitators assigned to guide them. Every after activity, delegates undergo processing. By the end of the event, the delegates will choose their batch president and vice-president and batch name.
Every year, activities are leveled up, and the former delegates get to help in facilitating. Alumni (former staff and delegate) also get to visit during the training.
AOC 3, Feb 10-12 2012
This year, CDO-ASSET invited Brian Quebengco – Founder and Chief Inoventor of Inovent, Inc. and Bam Aquino.
Brian Quebengco stayed at Mapawa for the whole duration of the event. He helped the organizers in some of the processing activities. He even joined everybody in the rain during the day 2 activities.
On day 3, Bam Aquino arrived and gave his talk about entrepreneurship.
After the talk, the delegates had more processing at the lawn, and the speakers then went their way home.
After all the processing and activities the 3rd Batch named, "COMRUST", became new individuals – bold, strong, and confident.
The batch named themselves as such for them to be reminded of the things that they lack during the training – Communication and Trust.
