The quick session served as an introductory activity ahead of the 6-day immersion of the JYPOs, which will run from August 9 to 14, 2026. The orientation underscored key responsibilities of administrative staff and counterparts in guiding the junior officials throughout the program.
Highlighted in the discussion were significant considerations regarding the sashing ceremony and the office duty schedules of the JYPOs, both of which require close supervision, mentorship, and the presence of their counterparts to ensure smooth and meaningful participation.
Also, the PSWDO-YDD emphasized the programโs goal of immersing young leaders in actual governance work while ensuring that their experience remains structured, secure, and educational. Administrative officers were reminded to provide assistance in familiarizing the JYPOs with office protocols, confidentiality of documents, and proper delegation of age-appropriate tasks.
