Administration under her leadership was listed by the Professional
Regulation Commission (PRC) as the number 3 top performing
school with over 100 examinees. This continuous performance is
the reason that it granted a second level re-accreditation by The
Philippine Association of Colleges and Universities Commission on

are several programs implemented in order to improve the ratings.
Within the past 60 years, the college of business administration
produced more than 350 top placers in the CPA Board
Examination. Twenty-nine of these were first placers, while 50 were
2nd and 3rd placers. The rest dominated the 4th to the 20th slots. It

1.1.1.5 Cagayan de Oro City Hall Computerized Payroll System
The City Accounting Department has introduced an upgraded
computerized payroll system for permanent employees in a bid to
improve its services and maximize resources. "This project, which
was conceived two years ago, basically aims to improve our
services particularly in the processing of payrolls for permanent
employees," City Accountant Wilma Polley-Rugay told payroll incharge of the different departments and offices at City Hall during a
briefing and orientation on the concept of the one-month payroll
system held Friday last week at the City Council session hall in
Cagayan de Oro City. With the added features of the new
computerized payroll system, Rugay said the preparation,
processing and payment of payroll system to permanent employees
would
be
hastened
and
fast-tracked.
Adopting of the one-month payroll system is also beneficial, not
only to the City Accounting Department, but also to the payroll-incharge as it would save time, energy and resources. “Employees
who handle payroll preparation and processing can now attend to
other office needs and concerns as the new payroll system will
lessen
their
workload,"
she
added.
Under the new payroll system, preparation and processing of
payroll, which reflects the accrued, amount payable every 15th and
30th day of the month, done only once. Unlike the time-consuming
old payroll system, preparation and processing of payroll is done
twice a month covering the first half and second half of the month.
