STRATPOINT Technologies, leading software development and cloud services provider in the Philippines, partners with Phinma Education, a nationwide secondary and tertiary school system, to close the industry academia gap — the gap between the education received by fresh graduates and the industry's expectations from entry-level professionals.

Companies in the industry currently had programs such as on-the-job training and curriculum consultations to help bridge this gap. But, more and more information technology (IT) positions had opened up and needed to be filled fast, especially at the height of Covid-19 lockdowns. The new IT landscape also demanded that employees be equipped with highly technical skills and abilities such as analytical thinking, complex problem solving and resilience, among others.
