The NFJPIA Region 6 In Retrospect

The Federation Year 2000-2001 of the NFJPIA Region VI – Regional Council (RVI-RC) was a grand moment. Various activities were performed promoting the organization’s goals and objectives with more focus in the service to fellow JPIAns as well as the community.

During the previous year, with sincere dedication and hard work, the RVI-RC has been able to carry out projects which were indeed relevant and innovative. It has done such projects as conventions, interschool accounting quizbowls, trivia contests, symposia, and other joint projects with PICPA and other local chapters.

The RVI-RC held two conventions during the federation year 1999-2000. The conventions became the venue wherein the JPIAns from all over Region VI were given the chance to get together once every semester. These were held to foster fellowship and solidarity among the JPIAns, as well as to develop them into well rounded individuals:

The 2nd Mid-Year Convention (MYC) was held on October 17-19, 1999 at Casa Pilar, Boracay, Malay, Aklan with the theme: Empowering JPIAns; Global in Mindset, Facing the Challenges of the Third Millennium. It was attended by more than 350 JPIAns.

The 4th Year-End Convention (YEC) was held on March 3-5, 2000 at the La Fiesta Hotel, Iloilo City with the theme: Back to Basic: Activating, Empowering, Innovating, Offering, and Uniting JPIAns for Y2K Challenges in Service to Humanity.

Seminars, lectures, various contests, literary numbers, and the likes are being conducted during the conventions. Aside from these activities, there are also those which facilitate the process of getting to know one another and those which create lasting friendships.

The Accountancy Week (AW) is a nationwide celebration of the National Federation that falls on the 3rd week of July. Here in Region VI, each provincial federation celebrated the week with series of lectures and seminars conducted by renowned speakers from various accounting firms and from the PICPA. To culminate the week, the NFJPIA RVI-RC Officers as well as the provincial federation officers were inducted.

The Provincial Assembly (PA) was designed last federation year. It is a venue wherein JPIAns of respective provinces will have a chance to meet and be with the Regional Officers. This is being done to foster fellowship and solidarity among JPIAns. Various activities were included in the PA like seminars, symposia, and cultural competition.

The Leadership Training Seminar (LTS) a two/three day activity that aims to provide rudimentary skills in leadership, personal motivation and sound decision making which will be very beneficial to help the Regional Council Officers to be effective in their respective positions.

The Outreach Program (OP) is a voluntary activity that share the value of extending help to the needy without expecting something in return.

The RVI-RC has a lot to be proud of not only in its worthwhile activities but also in its numerous achievements in the national competition during the national MYC & YEC. To update, the following are the results:
