“Words alone cannot express how proud I am! The NMYC just proved that PUP Manila JPIAns can excel and shine even in the national and non-virtual field. But of course, the awards are just a bonus because what’s more important is our enjoyable experience and stay in Cebu,” said Erica De Guzman, PUP JPIA Manila President.

Ever since the global health crisis occurred, this year’s National Mid-Year Convention (NMYC) with the theme "Into the Twilight: The Awakening of Skoll and Hati" was the first time to implement face-to-face as it was just virtually celebrated from the previous years.

The NMYC is an annual event and inter-regional academic and non-academic competitions of 13 Regional Councils covered by the National Federation of Junior Philippine Institute of Accountants (NFJPIA) which aims to showcase the talents and wits of every JPIAn across the country and to promote camaraderie and strengthen the bond between Regional Councils and the National Council.
