The Commission on Elections (Comelec) gears up for the upcoming National and Local Elections (NLE) by initiating a series of comprehensive training programs for its field personnel. Chairman George Erwin Garcia recently announced the schedule of the NLE trainings, emphasizing the critical role they play in ensuring the smooth and efficient conduct of the elections.



 

The NLE trainings, commencing on January 27 and extending until May, are designed to equip field officials with the necessary knowledge and skills to effectively carry out their duties. The first phase of the training, set to take place at Diamond Hotel, will focus on Training of Trainers, with subsequent sessions dedicated to various aspects such as deployment, finance, contingency planning, and the utilization of essential materials and peripherals.

Chairman Garcia emphasized the significance of these face-to-face briefings, highlighting that this would be the final opportunity to provide comprehensive training before the elections. The trainings will also extend to certifiers from the Department of Science and Technology (DOST), encompassing vital areas such as Geographic Information (GI) operations and the Automated Centralized Canvassing and Consolidation System (ACMCCS).

The training schedule outlined by Chairman Garcia paints a clear picture of the meticulous preparations being undertaken by Comelec. The upcoming months will witness a flurry of activities aimed at preparing field personnel for their roles in the electoral process. From Training of Trainers phases to specialized sessions for DOST certifiers and various stakeholders, the comprehensive training program reflects Comelec's commitment to ensuring a well-prepared and capable workforce for the upcoming elections.

 

As highlighted by Chairman Garcia, the NLE trainings will cover a wide array of topics, including technical support, certification processes for electoral boards, engagement with vulnerable sectors such as persons deprived of liberty (PDL), indigenous peoples (IP), and persons with disabilities (PWD), as well as specialized training for law enforcement agencies.

The meticulous planning and execution of these training programs underscore Comelec's dedication to upholding the integrity and efficiency of the electoral process. By equipping field personnel with the necessary expertise and knowledge, Comelec aims to ensure that the NLE is conducted with utmost professionalism and adherence to established protocols.

With a busy schedule ahead, encompassing multiple phases of training leading up to the elections in May, Comelec remains steadfast in its commitment to fostering a well-prepared and capable workforce. The comprehensive NLE trainings stand as a testament to the dedication of Comelec in ensuring that its staff is equipped with the necessary skills and knowledge to uphold the integrity of the electoral process. These trainings encompass a wide range of areas, including voter education, technology utilization, and election administration, all aimed at preparing the workforce for the upcoming elections in May.
