UAP Regional District B2 Assembly: Training to be Emergency-Ready Architects

The UAP Regional District B2, in cooperation with Philippine Red Cross-Batangas Chapter, held its District Assembly on 10-11 February 2018 in Tanauan, Batangas. The highlight of the District Assembly was the 16-hour Occupational First Aid and Basic Life Support - CPR/AED Safety Service Training Course, a very practical way to address the need to be ready for any emergency, disaster, calamity, accident or injury that can occur at any time and usually without warning in or out of the workplace.

The First Aid and Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) with Automated External Defibrillator (AED) Training is in compliance with the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) Order No. 13 s. 2013, and is equivalent to the 16-hours annual construction and health continuing training for the certification of full-time safety personnel. The newly certified First Aiders of the District B2 also became Philippine Red Cross Premier Bronze Members.

The assembly also witnessed the joining of several architects from District B2 and District B4’s Batangas Lakeshore Chapter in the worthy cause of UAP Emergency Architects. Representing UAP-EA Chair Stephanie Gilles, UAP-EA Deputy Chair Jose A. Miranda inducted the new members. District B2 Director Tessa C. Espinas- Salinas is also the UAP-EA External Affairs and Linkages Head. UAP-EA is a socio-civic disaster-response arm of the UAP which aims to help rebuild lives and support local communities in the Philippines affected by disasters and calamities.

UAP Regional District B2 is composed of 7 local chapters and 2 foreign-based chapters led by the following chapter presidents: Irma Bernardo (Manila Architects for Government Service-MAGS), Donnae Edusada (Manila Maharlika), Honesto Uy (Manila Maynilad), Joy Villar (Manila Corinthian), Perry Sanga (Manila ), Ariel Tabang Jr. (Manila Alcaldia), Cesar Teodoro (Manila La Solidaridad), Alvic Doctolero (Ontario-Canada), and Felix Tan (British Columbia).
