Sprott-Shaw Blog

Last year Sprott Shaw opened its first campus in the Philippines in partnership with the Far Eastern University in Moyrata, Manila. To date their are over 130 students attending Sprott Shaw’s RCA health program. Upon the last visit to the Philippines in March 2009, the campus received more computers, LCD projectors, additional Internet connections and of course the Sprott Shaw job bell to hang on the wall, not to mention a couple of goodies for the students.

On April 23, 2009 it was Sprott Shaw’s 106th birthday and the campus in the Philippines celebrated Sprott Shaw’s birthday with contests and games with the Far Eastern University staff and two extremely large cakes!! The campus was able to feed five other departments within the Far Eastern University! How big was this cake… makes me wonder!

The students absolutely love the program and the Canadian style of teaching in the classroom! The first set of RCA students have finished their clinical with GREAT reviews; well they are SSCC students! A clinical is when they go to hospitals under supervision and get hands on work/practise; basically a practicum. The next class heads out to do their first clinical in Manila this month!! We at Sprott Shaw wish you all the best!

To all the instructors and staff in the Philippines keep up the hard work, you have made the campus great!! Maraming salamat sa iyo ang lahat ng!

Hopefully I will come down to visit

Stayed tuned for more information regarding additional programs launching in the Philippines and the newest Sprott Shaw campus opening in Quezon City!!
