AMPC Launch Members Education Briefing Program

AMPC implements MEB or Members Education Briefing for all members of the Agdao Multipurpose Cooperative this is to keep members updated on the latest development and member related information on what’s going on in our cooperative. This is also a venue for members to air out concerns, questions, and observations so that the board can formulate policies and for management to implement. Additionally, Annual Ownership Meeting shall be replaced by the conduct of the regular MEB to AMPC members. This members education briefing is initiated by the Membership Committee under the Education Committee Chairperson Dir Allaga.

What is Members Education Briefing?

MEB or Members Education Briefing is a short lecture type briefing for members availing major loans of AMPC to augment knowledge about loans, deposits, insurance, & other membership rights, responsibilities and obligations. It is also a forum for members to air concerns and be informed on the latest policies approved by the board and implemented by the management. The MEB is already implemented by AMPC for a few branches started last year and found out to be an effective venue for members to communicate the concerns needed to be acted and eliminate gray areas in the policies affecting members of AMPC. The board approves the training of the pool of educators of AMPC who shall officially conduct the education briefing to the members and the membership committee plans to conduct a 2nd batch of member education volunteers that we hope to be participated and represented per branch. If you are interested to volunteer please see your respective branch managers.

Why is MEB necessary for AMPC?

We value our members. Our members have the right to know the affairs of the cooperative. Through the MEB program we can keep the members updated of what the cooperative is doing. We also believe that informing the members can help them appreciate other services offered by the cooperative and thru this information we hope that members will avail the product of AMPC. The Deposits, Loans, Insurance, and DAMAYAN are basic services that members need to understand.  

What is Members Education Volunteer (MEV)?

Members Education Volunteer or MEV are member of AMPC who completed and have undergone a 2 days Training on AMPC’s products and services. Members Education Volunteers are required to have a free time on scheduled lecturers to members. The MEV’s are the ones allowed to conduct the MEB partnered by a staff of AMPC for technical concerns.   

How will MEB be conducted by AMPC?

Members Education Briefing is conducted to members who avail a major loan of the cooperative it is done before a loan is released. This is a required step/process for member’s major loan and attendance is valid for 1 year from the last date of attendance. An attendance logbook is maintained to validly claim that the member has already attended the MEB. If you are a member from another branch attending MEB in another Branch a member must secure a certificate of attendance aside from the logbook as proof of attendance of MEB.

Is there a Fee to Attend the MEB?

There is a required cost share of members amounting to P20 pesos to subsidize for snacks and materials of MEB. This is not enough but it would help augment expenses of the coop.

Our Challenge to all our Members
 
We believe that AMPC with the support of the members can spread its services to a wider audience and provide better services through this program. We urged members to cooperate in this endeavor and let us help build better AMPC in the years to come.
