EXISTING UNIVERSITY EXTENSION AND TRAINING MODALITIES AND

PROGRAMS

5.Development Support Communication

Any technology disseminated will be complemented with print, broadcast

and video materials. The packaging of development support
communication materials will be undertaken. The type of development support
communication depends upon the situation. Movies are usually integrated in

trainings to emphasize specific value critical to the success of an intervention.
Technologies are given in print but are normally demonstrated depending on

their feasibility. For greater effects, these are introduced in the Rural Enterprise
Development stage.

6.Rural-based Enterprise Development

Through this process, commercialization of technologies is established
in the pilot barangays. Technologies that are chosen on the basis of available
resources will be commercialized in the barangay. Gradually, the community is

trained and exposed to the development of the rural enterprises. To generate
resources for the community, experts from the University shall extend

technical assistance in the preparation of the feasibility studies and
project proposal for submission to local and foreign funding institutions.
