Makati-based iACADEMY geared up for face-to-face classes this 2022

As the country slowly regains composure following the continuous drop of COVID-19 cases and the lifting of capacity restrictions, iACADEMY shares delight in finally holding classes back on campus this May 2022. 

Beginning the third term of the school year 2021-2022, iACADEMY college students are permitted to report on-site and hold learning activities on campus under the Hyflex (hybrid and flexible) learning setup. 

“Our students cannot contain their excitement having waited for two years to return to the campus. Apart from enjoying the facilities on site, they have been looking forward to meeting their professors and exchanging ideas with their peers in person. We know this will spark a new fire in them, so we expect more game-changing ideas to come out of this new chapter”, says Cecilia Sy, Vice President for Academic Affairs. 

The Central Student Organization (CSO) of iACADEMY comprising of student leaders from various levels prepared activities to welcome back Game Changers who have signed up for this optional learning setup. In the reception area of the Nexus Campus, there will be welcome banners, a freedom board where students can write their messages to Game Changers, and care kits that will be distributed to all students resuming on site. 

“Apart from retrofitting the campus to ensure the safety of our students and staff, we’ve also consulted the counsel of experts and constantly held conferences with students and parents to identify and address any concerns they have regarding face-to-face classes. I’m happy to share that the whole iACADEMY community has been very cooperative and supportive of what needed to be done”, says Vanessa Tanco, CEO and President of iACADEMY. 

The school expects students who are required to use iACADEMY’s top-notch facilities and laboratories to be back on site, following a schedule and groupings based on the restrictions on capacity and distance. The pilot phase of this gradual return also requires students to register with Philhealth or any equivalent medical insurance to ensure coverage for COVID-19. Upon entrance, students are required to present their vaccination cards and health declaration through the Stay Safe PH app. 

iACADEMY also opens doors for campus tours every Friday, subject to the availability of schedules. Interested applicants may book a slot by sending an email to admissions@iacademy.edu.ph. For more information about iACADEMY’s specialized programs for SHS and College, visit www.iACADEMY.edu.ph.
