CARIGARA, LEYTE- To synchronize its local operations with the university’s broader vision for the 2026 fiscal and academic year, the Eastern Visayas State University – Carigara Campus (EVSU-CC) successfully conducted its two-day Campus Assessment and Operational Planning on February 10-11, 2026.

This strategic event, which follows a series of similar planning sessions across other EVSU satellite campuses including Carigara Campus, gathered campus administrators, department heads, and key personnel to evaluate past performance and set new developmental milestones

The activity was guided by the expertise of key officials from the EVSU-Main Campus, including University President Dennis C. De Paz, Ph.D.; Vice-President for Academic Affairs Benedicto T. Militante, Jr, Ph.D., J.D.; and Vice-President for Research, Innovation, and Extension Danilo B. Pulma, D.M.. Also providing critical insight were Internal Planning and Development Office (IPDO) Director Engr. Roque A. Constiniano, Head of Planning Enp. Julius P. Badeo, Planning Officers Mr. Josar G. Badilla and Ms. Julie Ann Gadin, and Joseph Ivan Pedrero, AA VI. The first day of the activity focused on a rigorous Campus Assessment guided by the targets indicated in the Office Performance Commitment Review (OPCR). Participants conducted diagnostic analyses of the previous year’s targets and identified operational bottlenecks that impacted the institution’s efficiency.

A primary component of the session involved assigning specific targets to responsible offices and units, which allowed the campus leadership to scan the internal and external environments affecting the institution’s growth

. By identifying these factors, the campus aims to streamline its processes and ensure that every department is aligned with the university’s overarching goals for the coming year. The planning session concluded with a formal commitment from the campus leadership to bridge the gap between planning and execution. The 2026 roadmap emphasizes Resiliency and Climate Action to achieve sustainability, aiming to provide innovative and high-quality services to the students of Carigara and neighboring municipalities.

By concluding this two-day intensive workshop, EVSU-CC solidifies its readiness to meet the evolving demands of higher education and regional development for the current year 2026. Photo by: Talutang
