Congratulations to the successfully selected participants of the IBM Academic Evangelist and Instructor Training on Business Intelligence scheduled on May 14 to 23, 2012 at the IBM Innovation Center (UP Ayala TechnoHub, Commonwealth, Quezon City.)

We would like to thank you for your support to this training program that is made possible through the partnership of IBM Academic Iniative and PSITE.  IBM has received many applications from different schools from different parts of the country for this training, and in as much as IBM wants to accommodate all the interested applicants given the credentials of the applicants, IBM has only limited slots available hence, it had to prioritize applications based  on (but not necessarily in this order):

-representation per region
-representation per school
-willingness to be an evangelist

Please see the list of the successful participants.  For those whose names are not in the list, you are automatically in the waitlist.  IBM will be sending an e-mail announcement should there be changes in the roster of participants.  Take note that IBM was the one which selected the participants, and not PSITE.

VERY IMPORTANT: For the successful participants, kindly send an e-mail to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it and This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it using the following format:
