BALANGA CITY, Bataan, Feb. 20 (PNA) -– The city government, in partnership with Smart Communications, is conducting a three-day training on how to develop applications or apps, the first in Bataan, at the new library in this component city.

There are 20 participants coming from the city and provincial governments and from computer schools like Microcity, Eastwoods and Asia Pacific College, all in Balanga City.
“We hope to learn more about developing applications,” said Cheryl Sacdalan, Microcity instructor and one of the trainees. (PNA)
