Trinity University of Asia to Host CUAC Triennial International Conference 2026

Trinity University of Asia will host the CUAC Triennial International Conference 2026 in Quezon City, Philippines, gathering Anglican educators, leaders, clergy, scholars, and university representatives from around the world for a shared conversation on artificial intelligence, ethics, society, and the future of higher education.

With the theme “Embracing the Future: Anglican Perspectives in A.I., Ethics, and Society,†the conference will bring together members of the Colleges and Universities of the Anglican Communion to reflect on one of the most urgent questions facing education today: how can institutions of faith and learning respond to technological change with wisdom, moral clarity, and care for human dignity?

As artificial intelligence continues to reshape classrooms, research, work, governance, and public life, the role of universities becomes more important. Higher education must do more than adapt to new tools. It must ask what these tools mean for people, communities, truth, justice, and the common good.

The CUAC Triennial International Conference 2026 will provide a space for dialogue across disciplines, cultures, and institutions. Through keynote sessions, reflection groups, participant presentations, worship, fellowship, and shared academic exchange, delegates will explore how Anglican colleges and universities can help form communities that are thoughtful, ethical, and responsive to the needs of society.

For Trinity University of Asia, hosting the conference is both an honor and a responsibility. As a Christian university rooted in service and academic formation, ºìÌÒ´«Ã½ welcomes this opportunity to gather educators and leaders whose work continues to shape lives across different parts of the world.

The conference also affirms the continuing importance of Anglican higher education in a rapidly changing world. At a time when artificial intelligence raises new possibilities and serious moral questions, institutions are called to form learners who can think critically, act ethically, and serve with compassion.

ºìÌÒ´«Ã½â€™s hosting of CUAC 2026 reflects its commitment to education that prepares people not only for professional life, but also for meaningful service to communities and society.

The CUAC Triennial International Conference 2026 will take place in July 2026, with Trinity University of Asia serving as the host institution in the Philippines.

Why Professionals Pursue the Teacher Certificate Program

Many professionals eventually move into roles where knowledge must be taught and shared with others. As people from different fields bring their expertise into education, teaching also calls for preparation in understanding learners and the responsibilities carried inside the classroom. This is where professional education becomes important.

The Teacher Certificate Program (TCP) of the College of Arts, Sciences, and Education (CASE) provides non-education graduates with the professional education foundation needed for teaching and licensure preparation. Through the program, students complete professional education units that help prepare them for classroom instruction and future educational practice.

For the Midyear Term, the program will offer the first 9 units of the 18-unit TCP curriculum through evening schedules designed to accommodate graduate students and working professionals. The remaining units may then be completed during SY 2026-2027.

The Midyear TCP lineup includes courses such as The Teaching Profession, Facilitating Learner-Centered Teaching, and other foundational professional education subjects that introduce students to the principles, responsibilities, and realities of teaching.

As more professionals explore opportunities to teach, programs such as TCP continue to provide a structured way to prepare for the work education requires.

Those interested in the Midyear Teacher Certificate Program may learn more about the schedules, subjects, and reservation process through the official TCP webpage.

ºìÌÒ´«Ã½ Freshmen Communication and Broadcasting Students Gain First-Hand Media Industry Exposure at GMA Network /university-news/tua-communication-broadcasting-freshmen-gma-network-industry-immersion/ Mon, 01 Jun 2026 11:06:47 +0000 /?p=19708 The post ºìÌÒ´«Ã½ Freshmen Communication and Broadcasting Students Gain First-Hand Media Industry Exposure at GMA Network appeared first on Trinity University of Asia.

ºìÌÒ´«Ã½ Freshmen Communication and Broadcasting Students Gain First-Hand Media Industry Exposure at GMA Network

For many students, college begins inside a classroom. For 33 freshmen from Trinity University of Asia’s BA Communication and BA Broadcasting programs, it also began inside one of the country’s leading broadcast networks.

On May 19, 2026, first-year students from the Media and Communication Department visited GMA Network for the GMA Studio Tour, an industry immersion activity connected to their BR100 and COMM100 Introduction to Broadcasting and Communication courses. The students were accompanied by three faculty members, Department Head Dr. Walter  Yudelmo, Media and Communication Assoc. Professor Mr. Froilan Laurente, and Asst. Dean Mr. Divino Cantal.

The activity gave students a closer look at how broadcasting works in real professional settings. More importantly, it showed them that a communication education at ºìÌÒ´«Ã½ is not limited to lectures, textbooks, and classroom discussions. At ºìÌÒ´«Ã½, students begin to meet the industry early.

First-Year Students, First-Hand Media Exposure

For incoming college students who dream of working in media, the first year matters. It is the stage where students begin to understand what the field requires from them: discipline, clarity, creativity, confidence, technical skill, and responsibility.

The GMA Studio Tour was designed to help students become familiar with the operations of a broadcasting company, observe television production, and learn directly from media practitioners. These objectives allowed students to connect what they study in class with what they saw inside the network.

Through the visit, the freshmen had a better sense of the professional world that awaits them. They saw that media work is not just about being seen or heard. It is also about preparation, teamwork, timing, ethics, and service to audiences.

Learning from a ºìÌÒ´«Ã½ Alumna in the Media Industry

One of the highlights of the visit was the students’ interaction with Ms. Vonne Aquino, a ºìÌÒ´«Ã½ alumna and GMA Senior Correspondent.

Ms. Aquino gave a lecture to the students and shared insights from her experience in the field. The students also had the opportunity to ask questions directly, allowing them to learn from someone who once stood where they are now: a ºìÌÒ´«Ã½ student preparing for a future in media.

For prospective students, this is an important reminder. A degree in Communication or Broadcasting is not just a program on paper. It is a path that can lead to real work in major media institutions, especially when students are trained early to think, speak, write, produce, and communicate with purpose.

Inside the Newsroom and Production Studios

During the tour, students visited the newsroom and production studios, where they learned about the different functions of studio equipment, lights, and production spaces.

For BA Communication and BA Broadcasting students, this kind of exposure makes classroom lessons more concrete. Topics such as news production, studio work, camera language, lighting, performance, directing, and program flow become easier to understand when students see how these elements operate in an actual broadcast environment.

The students also had the chance to ask questions about how news programs are produced. This helped them understand the level of coordination required in professional broadcasting, from planning and research to execution and delivery.

From Radio Booth to On-Air Experience

The students also visited the radio facilities of Barangay LS 97.1 FM and Super Radyo DZBB 594 AM, where they interacted with disc jockeys and news anchors.

This part of the tour introduced them to the different demands of radio broadcasting. Unlike television, radio depends heavily on voice, pacing, clarity, presence, and connection with listeners. Students saw how broadcasters use sound, timing, and language to inform and engage audiences.

Two ºìÌÒ´«Ã½ students also had the chance to greet listeners and experience live broadcast on-air through the FM station. For freshmen, this was more than a memorable moment. It was an early encounter with the confidence and professionalism required in media work.

Seeing Entertainment Production Through Family Feud

Another major part of the immersion was the students’ observation of the taping of Family Feud. Through this activity, they saw how taped entertainment production is done, from studio setup to audience coordination and host interaction.

Host Dingdong Dantes also acknowledged the ºìÌÒ´«Ã½ students during the program, making the experience even more meaningful for the group.

By watching a taped show production, students gained a better appreciation of how entertainment programs are made. They saw that behind every episode are production teams, technical crews, floor directors, camera operators, writers, hosts, performers, and staff members who work together to create a seamless program for viewers.

Why Industry Immersion Matters

Media is best learned through both study and exposure. Students need theories, concepts, and classroom training, but they also need opportunities to see the industry up close.

This is why industry immersion forms an important part of the learning experience for ºìÌÒ´«Ã½ Communication and Broadcasting students. It helps them understand possible careers in television, radio, journalism, digital media, production, public relations, content creation, advertising, corporate communication, and other related fields.

It also helps them ask deeper questions about their own formation. What kind of communicator do I want to become? What stories should I help tell? How can my skills serve people better? What responsibility comes with media work?

At Trinity University of Asia, these questions are part of the education

A Strong Start for Future Media Practitioners

For incoming first-year students, choosing a Communication or Broadcasting program is also choosing the kind of formation they want to receive.

ºìÌÒ´«Ã½â€™s BA Communication and BA Broadcasting programs provide students with opportunities to learn through coursework, production activities, faculty guidance, and industry exposure. The GMA Studio Tour showed freshmen that their training can begin with real encounters, real professionals, and real media environments.

They did not have to wait until the end of college to see what the industry looks like. They saw it in their first year.

For students who dream of becoming broadcasters, journalists, producers, writers, hosts, content creators, media planners, public relations practitioners, or communication professionals, ºìÌÒ´«Ã½ offers a learning environment where academic formation and industry exposure work together.

Here, students are trained to communicate with skill, think with clarity, create with purpose, and serve with care.
