About ETCIO
Educate the Citizens International Organization (ETCIO) was established with the mandate to bridge the social skills gap in the Educational Services Sector and the workplace. ETCIO remains steadfast in its commitment to utilizing its social skills and character development programs to empower students and members of the workforce. By imparting relevant soft skills, the organization aims to enhance productivity, promote meaningful living, facilitate career aspirations, and contribute to the creation of a transformative society.
Our Vision aligns with Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 4 (quality education) and 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth). We are committed to complementing the existing educational architecture with our fun-filled, hands-on and experiential social skills and character development programs.
Through our engaging and interactive programs, workshops, webinars, camps, school-based initiatives, and community clubs, children and young adults are provided with the chance to explore their identities, cultivate character, and bolster confidence for navigating everyday life. We firmly believe that beyond academic knowledge, the qualities of character, social etiquette, and respect for humanity should hallmark an educated individual, setting them apart from those who lack formal education.
