Covid-19 Pandemic Reshaping Education

AmCham Philippines

AmCham came to life in 1902 as the Manila Coffee Round Table and later as Manila Merchants Association. Incorporated in 1920, it has since then recognized and reconfirmed the commitment of American business to the development and welfare of the Philippines and the Filipino people.

This is a commitment of long-standing, as its mission statement declares:

The Chamber exists to serve the interests of U.S. businesses through the participation of members in promoting their long-term objectives while contributing to the civic and economic development of the Philippines.”

He is an alumnus of the University of the Philippines Diliman (BSIE, MURP) and the University of Pittsburgh (MBA, PhD).

Dr. Maria Teresita Macanas Semana acquired more than 30 years of experience in the academe, industry and government where she was exposed in various functions of technical, services, administration and management. Her first entry to the government service was with the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) as the first Division Chief of the Management Information System coming from the private sector in 1997.

She transferred to the DTI-Board of Investments as Director of the Technology Management Department in 2003 and served as Director of the Administrative and Finance Group of the Presidential Communication Development and Strategic Planning Office (PCDSPO) in 2010 that paved her way back to CHED in 2012 as Director III of the Office of Planning, Research and Knowledge Management (OPRKM) and the designated Chief Technology Officer (CTO) in-charge of the Knowledge Management Division (KMD). On 17 February 2020, Dr. Semana was designated as OIC Director IV of the CHED Regional Office III as her first regional assignment.
