On 230800H September 2026, the VSUV-ROTCU Corps Commander, Operations Officer (S3), and Civil-Military Operations Officer (S7) attended the Student Leadership Development Training-Workshop at the VSU Villaba Student Center.

With the theme, "Lead with Purpose: Building Responsible and Effective Student Leaders," the whole-day activity sought to broaden the knowledge of the student leaders about their core roles, duties, and responsibilities to the university.

The morning session was all about Institutional Processes and Organizational Policies which was thoroughly discussed by VSUV Chancellor and resource speaker, Mr. Bon Anthony F. Costillas. While the afternoon session focused on Leadership Communication and Documentation facilitated by Mr. Arsenio Jahn B. Dolino III.

Through this activity, the VSUV-ROTCU cadet officers have acquired new insights to lead with integrity, strengthen their unit governance, and better serve the university community.
