CIIT- Philippines College of Arts and Technology

Cosmopoint International Institute of Technology again takes immense pride in the brilliance and talent of their young students as in the recently conducted Best of Anime Convention, held at the SMX Convention Center in Pasay City last September 17 and 18, sisters Katherine and Tracy Gibson crushed their competition and took the honors in three categories of the exciting art contest eagerly anticipated by the convention’s numerous patrons.

Regardless of rain and traffic jams, the sixth Graphika Manila convention was an event worth attending. Once again, the event brings together Manila's brightest minds in the field of multimedia arts, graphic design and advertising, joining with several other professionals from around the globe, each with the intention of participating in the numerous discussions about the present and bright future of of the digital arts. With five halls in the SMX Convention Center in Manila, it was truly a festival celebrating the wonders of art and technology.

One of the school year's most anticipated events finally came to a completion last July 22, 2011 at the prestigious Technowave in Tomas Morato where CIIT once again held its annual Acquaintance Party. A time of the year when students can relax, enjoy each others' company, dance, sing and party the night away. Most of all, it is a time for the students, alumni, faculty and staff to really bond and become one big CIIT family.

CIIT not only takes pride in the talent of their students but in the size of their hearts. Recently, Dr. Arthur Gregory Lui, a member of the Sagip Buhay Medical Foundation, approached members of Zero Productions and requested if they could give them valuable pro-bono assistance. Sagip Buhay, which is based inside the Philippine General Hospital, is an NGO whose purpose is to provide medical assistance to patients unable to financially support their medical bills. Sadly, there are many of our countrymen who require hospitalization yet do not have the means to pay. Some of these unfortunate ones can’t even pay for their prescriptions or their stay in the hospital, let alone their surgeries.

itprosasia.com, the Philippine's premier on-line career resource for IT and technology professionals, officially partnered with CIIT in another signing event held last July 12, 2011. The event was held here in CIIT as Mr. Neil Bocacao, Marketing Officer of itprosasia, together with Mr. Niel Dagondon, President of CIIT, signed the deal that allows itprosasia to tap the tech-savvy graduates of the school and provide our graduates with even more job opportunities related to their fields.

We found ourselves happily surprised as one of our students posted about CIIT being featured in this months' Candy Magazine through Facebook. And much to our amazement, it indeed was true! CIIT would like to thank Candy Magazine for featuring CIIT for their July 2011 issue on "Colleges Worth Knowing". It was an unexpected but highly appreciated recognition for the school from one of the leading magazine publishers that focuses on topics significant to the lives of teens and high school students.

Candy Magazine focused on the latest and most popular courses of the school on 3D Animation and Game Development recognizing that these two
