Notice of training: ICT literacy workshop for non-teaching staff
The Division of Ozamiz City is strengthening workplace technology skills through an ICT literacy workshop designed for non-teaching personnel. The activity supports employees who manage records, communication, finance, school operations, learner services, and other essential administrative functions.
The training notice should be read alongside the official schedule and instructions released through DepEd Ozamiz. Participants are expected to check the approved venue, session dates, registration process, attendance requirements, and any materials they must bring before the workshop begins.
Digital competence is now part of efficient public service. A practical workshop can help staff work more confidently with office applications, online systems, electronic files, cybersecurity procedures, and routine digital communication.
Purpose of the workshop
The ICT literacy workshop aims to build practical skills that non-teaching staff can apply immediately in their daily assignments. Lessons may include creating and organizing documents, using spreadsheets, managing email, sharing files securely, and navigating web-based DepEd platforms.
The activity also promotes consistent digital practices across offices and schools. When personnel use common procedures for file naming, data entry, document storage, and online communication, records become easier to retrieve and administrative transactions become more reliable.
Who should participate
The intended participants are non-teaching employees assigned to public schools, division offices, and other units covered by the official training notice. Administrative assistants, records personnel, bookkeepers, clerks, property custodians, and staff members with regular computer-based duties may benefit from the sessions.
Supervisors and school heads should review the issued memorandum carefully and ensure that designated personnel are informed. If attendance is required, participants should arrange work coverage and coordinate official travel or service-related documents before the scheduled activity.
Topics and expected skills
Sessions may combine demonstrations, guided exercises, and practice tasks. The emphasis should remain on useful workplace applications rather than technical theory, allowing participants with different levels of experience to learn at a manageable pace.
| Training area | Practical application |
|---|---|
| Word processing | Preparing letters, reports, forms, and memoranda |
| Spreadsheets | Recording data, using basic formulas, and preparing summaries |
| Email and collaboration | Sending files, organizing messages, and sharing documents |
| Digital records | Applying file names, folders, backups, and access controls |
| Online safety | Recognizing suspicious links, protecting passwords, and reporting incidents |
| DepEd systems | Accessing authorized portals and completing routine digital transactions |
The workshop may also address responsible use of shared computers and online accounts. Participants should understand that personal credentials, learner information, financial records, and official documents must be handled only through authorized channels.
Registration and official updates
Personnel should rely on the division’s published memorandum for registration instructions, deadlines, required forms, and contact details. Additional personnel announcements may be reviewed through the DepEd Ozamiz job opportunities page, especially when staff need to distinguish current official postings from unrelated online notices.
Participants should save a copy of the training notice and keep proof of registration when applicable. Changes to the venue, timetable, session grouping, or documentary requirements should be confirmed through official DepEd channels rather than forwarded messages or unverified social media posts.
Preparing for the session
A short preparation period can make the workshop more productive. Participants should bring the identification, notebook, assigned device, charger, and other materials specified in the memorandum. They should also check whether their office email or system account is active before attending.
Staff who support school programs may need to balance training participation with operational duties. For example, employees coordinating school services can review related announcements such as the second-quarter feeding schedule and coordinate deadlines with their supervisors.
Actions for school heads and participants
School heads and unit supervisors can support successful attendance by completing these actions:
- Share the official training notice with all concerned non-teaching personnel.
- Confirm participant names, contact details, and registration status before the deadline.
- Arrange office coverage for essential services during workshop hours.
- Remind attendees to protect passwords and avoid sharing confidential files.
- Monitor post-training application of the skills in routine administrative work.
Participants should take an active role during demonstrations and practical exercises. Questions about a specific office process can help trainers connect general ICT lessons with real responsibilities, such as records management, procurement documentation, payroll support, communication, or school reporting.
Turning training into daily practice
The value of the activity will continue after the final session. Staff can apply their learning by organizing shared folders, using consistent document templates, backing up approved files, and checking recipients before sending sensitive information.
Supervisors may reinforce these habits through brief follow-up reviews and peer support. A staff member who becomes comfortable with spreadsheets or digital filing can help colleagues adopt the same process while still following DepEd privacy, records, and information security requirements.
Check the official DepEd Ozamiz notice for the authoritative schedule, participation requirements, and contact instructions. Eligible personnel should register on time, prepare the required materials, and attend ready to practice skills that improve dependable service in every school and office.
