Our Share and Learn @ Lunch Program

Share and Learn @ Lunch Program

Last October, 2010, I initiated the "Share & Learn @ Lunch Program" at our Cell Fab 2 Site in Batangas City.  The attendees were mostly from the Administration side and I invited some other employees from support group since Administrative staff are only a few.  The launching was successful and everyone had a great time during the session.

WHAT IS SHARE and LEARN @ LUNCH PROGRAM ?  It is a sharing, learning and training event scheduled during the lunch hour. It is a way to get training done by making the lunch hour multi-tasking.  I actually formed this for the administrative personnel which includes me to boost our morale and motivation since I felt that we are left out and not given much attention in the organization.  Most of the programs concentrate on the manufacturing operations people.
