ULCON Dean Dr. Jordan Hiso Llego to Lead Research Publication Webinar for Notre Dame of Tacurong College

The University of Luzon College of Nursing (ULCON) continues to solidify its reputation as a center of academic excellence and a pillar of scholarly leadership in the Philippines. In a testament to the institution’s growing influence in the field of health sciences and higher education, Dr. Jordan Hiso Llego, the esteemed Dean of the College of Nursing, has been formally invited to serve as the Resource Speaker for an upcoming Webinar on Research Publication. This scholarly engagement, organized by the Research and Development Office of Notre Dame of Tacurong College (NDTC), is scheduled to take place virtually on February 18, 2026. The session is specifically designed to mentor NDTC faculty members and Level IV nursing students as they navigate the rigorous requirements of their terminal thesis projects and the complexities of international scholarly dissemination.

This invitation is more than a personal accolade for Dr. Llego; it serves as a profound reflection of the University of Luzon’s unwavering commitment to the tripartite mandate of higher education: research, extension, and linkages. For Luzonians, research is not merely an academic exercise but a vital tool for progress. By fostering a culture of inquiry, ULCON ensures that decision-making remains evidence-based, ultimately generating innovative solutions that enhance nursing education and improve patient health outcomes. Extension programs further translate this scholarly work into tangible benefits for the community, ensuring that academic breakthroughs reach the very people they are intended to serve. Furthermore, international and domestic linkages, such as this collaboration with NDTC, provide a conduit for mentorship and institutional growth, allowing knowledge to transcend geographical boundaries for the benefit of a broader spectrum of stakeholders.

The University of Luzon celebrates this opportunity for knowledge sharing and scholarly collaboration. By reinforcing the value of ethical research dissemination and publication, ULCON and its leadership are paving a path toward stronger academic institutions and more resilient communities. Such engagements empower Luzonians to see themselves as part of a global community of scholars, where the pursuit of truth and the improvement of the human condition remain the ultimate objectives. As Dr. Llego represents the university on this platform, he carries with him the ULCON spirit of excellence, demonstrating that the University of Luzon is indeed a vital contributor to the national landscape of nursing scholarship.

Beyond the immediate academic objectives, this collaboration significantly advances the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 3 (Good Health and Well-Being), SDG 4 (Quality Education), and SDG 17 (Partnerships for the Goals). By equipping future nurses and educators with the skills to publish and disseminate high-quality research, the University of Luzon directly contributes to the global body of health knowledge necessary for universal health coverage and improved medical practice. This initiative ensures inclusive and equitable quality education by fostering lifelong learning and professional development, while the partnership itself exemplifies the collaborative spirit required to strengthen institutional capacities across the archipelago, ensuring a more sustainable and informed future for all.
