CLaaS2SaaS Takes Part in PACU’s 8th LAMP Summit, Advancing AI-Ready Learning for Philippine Higher Education
Valenzuela City, Philippines — November 19, 2025 — CLaaS2SaaS, the AI-powered digital skilling and enterprise transformation platform transforming education across Asia, participated the 8th Leadership and Management Perspectives (LAMP) Summit as an exhibitor sponsor and solutions showcase partner. Organized by the Philippine Association of Colleges and Universities (PACU) and hosted by Our Lady of Fatima University (OLFU) at its state-of-the-art Research, Innovation, Science, and Enterprise (RISE) Tower in Valenzuela City. The summit centered on theme “Redesigning Education Through AI Integration”provided the ideal platform for CLaaS2SaaS to demonstrate how its Agentic CLaaS2SaaS platform is empowering institutions across the region to embed AI literacy, enhance institutional efficiency, and deliver competency-based learning at scale.
CLaaS2SaaS’ participation underscored its position as the trusted partner for Philippine higher education institutions seeking practical, ethical, and scalable AI integration. The institution’s booth became a hub for meaningful dialogue, attracting college presidents, academic leaders, and policy advocates eager to explore how the integration of Competency Learning as a Service (CLaaS®) with Software as a Service (SaaS) provides tangible solutions to today’s institutional challenges: from curriculum modernization and workforce readiness to data-driven decision-making and enterprise-wide digital transformation.
The summit brought together 160 higher education leaders from 60 institutions, industry experts, and innovators in a collaborative forum that aligned perfectly with CLaaS2SaaS’ mission: bridging the gap between academic achievement and real-world digital competencies that employers demand in an AI-first economy. Throughout the event, CLaaS2SaaS transformed its exhibition space into a focused consultative hub, holding in-depth one-on-one conversations with institutional representatives. The team guided attendees through the platform’s capabilities: including AI-embedded curriculum development tools, learning analytics dashboards, work-integrated learning management systems, and enterprise intelligence automation, while exploring tailored solutions for their specific challenges. Each consultation concluded with a brief feedback survey and a token of appreciation, building connections that extended beyond the event and generating significant interest in follow-up engagements.

Partnership in Action
The event also showcased CLaaS2SaaS’ commitment to supporting AI-driven educational transformation through one of its key partners, the Philippine Women’s College of Davao (PWC). Prof. Vicente Antonio V. Pijano III, Chancellor and Chief Operating Officer of PWC and member of PACU’s Committee on Institutional Quality Improvement (CIQI), joined the summit as a keynote speaker.

His insights on curriculum innovation and industry collaboration aligned with the transformation strategies that CLaaS2SaaS enables through its platform, demonstrating the kind of forward-thinking leadership that defines successful AI integration in Philippine higher education.
“To truly address this mismatch, we need industry collaboration even at the basic education level,” emphasized Prof. Vicente Antonio V. Pijano III. “For basic education, our goal is to build strong foundational skills along with early AI literacy. For CHED, we need to implement OBE (Outcome-Based Education) and introduce specializations. For TESDA, modular micro-credentials. For PSF, industry-defined standards. And for UNESCO, ethical and inclusive AI. “
Prof. Pijano’s vision reflects the multi-stakeholder alignment that platforms like CLaaS2SaaS are designed to support, bridging regulatory frameworks, industry standards, and institutional capabilities into cohesive, actionable strategies. Along with this, the existing partnership between CLaaS2SaaS and PWC of Davao on work-integrated bachelor’s degree programs demonstrates how technology providers and academic institutions can collaborate effectively. As institutions like PWC champion AI Integration at the leadership level, CLaaS2SaaS provides the infrastructure, tools, and expertise to translate vision into operational reality across curriculum design, faculty enablement, and student competency development.
