The Pangasinan State University – San Carlos Campus conducted an extension activity entitled “Integration of Lifelong Learning through Stenography for Barangay Officials” for the barangay officials, barangay health workers, and SK officials of Barangay Payapa, San Carlos City, Pangasinan on April 6, 2022.

The ultimate purpose of the said training was to help impart knowledge on shorthand methods enabling the recipients to write as quickly as people speak during various proceedings and events, as well as introduce stenography as a profession. The participants learned the basics of the shorthand writing method as demonstrated by one of the resource speakers.

After the lecture, the participants further enhance the knowledge they have gained through a workshop. They were given sets of words and statements and they must successfully transcribe them using the shorthand method.
