The access points were installed and rolled out with the support of PLDT.

The milestone, spearheaded by DICT Acting Secretary Manny Caintic and UNDP Philippines Resident Representative Selva Ramachandran, was celebrated at the Bulacan Polytechnic College - San Jose Del Monte Campus with the simultaneous virtual participation of representatives from Nueva Vizcaya State University. These two schools were among the participating HEIs in the DICT-UNDP project.
