Bleary-eyed, wet-haired, and panting from the ascent of five flights of stairs --- this was how they first came into the halls of the Ingenuity office. They were eager young people willing to sacrifice their rest Saturdays for grueling 8-hour lectures and projects, all for the betterment of mankind.
Instead of a final exam to assess what they learned throughout their training, they were tasked to do Python-Django projects that are showcases of information systems. CEO John, Training Director June, Trainers Baia, Koon, and Aljohn were all on hand to critique their work, and were pleased with the outcome of the projects.
As they turned in and presented their systems, Team Ingenuity could not feel prouder that after just a short time, these kids have finally come into their own. And such talent they have! Hatching ideas into projects that would not only be usable, it could be of great help to their target industries as well.
Seth Busque and Dan Palmares' Library Management System was judged as the best of all projects presented. And Ross Bello and Princess Cuabo's Teacher's Evaluation System came in second place. Seth and Dan's project won the prestige of being supported by Ingenuity to Davao's 1st Start Up Weekend this coming November 9-11, 2012.
A little pep talk from the CEO
All in all, it was indeed a good day for everyone. Kudos, UP kids! Job well done.
