Partner schools under the Smart Wireless Engineering Education Program (SWEEP) are leveling up to take on artificial intelligence (AI). SWEEP, the Philippines’ longest running industry-academe linkage program, itself has officially entered Phase 5, which integrates AI, automation, and intelligent systems into engineering education, aligning academic training with how modern telecom networks are now designed, operated, and optimized.

Reaffirming their commitment to global excellence, PLDT Global Inc. has achieved its ISO 9001:2015 certification, the globally recognized standard for Quality Management Systems.

Amid the more frequent and intense calamities brought about by climate change, the Filipino bayanihan spirit shines through.  

The Monsantos are a perfect example of this. As the latest winners of PLDT Home’s One Mega Giveaway (OMG) promo, Marlowe Monsanto and family opted to donate their ₱100,000 cash reward to PLDT-Smart Foundation (PSF)'s relief operations for the benefit of typhoon Uwan survivors and upcoming holiday assistance programs for displaced communities.

PLDT and Smart Communications, Inc. recently collaborated with Teach for the Philippines (TFP), an education-focused non-government organization, to bring the #BeCyberSmart program to Taguanao Elementary School in Cagayan de Oro City, guiding young learners toward responsible and mindful online behavior. 

In a world where digital skills can open doors to opportunities, PLDT and Smart are ensuring a level playing field for all Filipinos, especially persons with disabilities. In Bukidnon, PWDs recently gained the confidence, tools, and skills to build their own livelihood, proving that inclusion and innovation can truly change lives.
