I used to be working as a cashier and was so nervous during BPO job interviews that I couldn't pass the assessments. After my training with BagoSphere, I finally got a job. Eventually, I was promoted to be a trainer.

Get a life-changing scholarship

Each fellowship is an investment of US$500 (~Php29,000) and in the future of youth in the Philippines. With the support of global and local philanthropic organizations, we are able to offer scholarships to deserving, unemployed youth.

Since elea's first investment in 2014, I have been impressed by BagoSphere's unique human-centric way of interacting with students. It has created transformational, life-changing opportunities for thousands of youth and stands out as an innovative model for building the skills required in a modern workplace.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who are we?

BagoSphere is a human skills school where high-potential, purpose-driven youth come together as a community to build social capital, develop skills, and advance their careers.


The Ateneo Center for Educational Development (ACED) is a key effort of Ateneo de Manila University to provide systematic, high-impact, and visible programs of support for public school systems in the Philippines through the Department of Education, Local Government Units, and other partners.


BagoSphere and ACED's collaboration began in 2018.

What makes us different?

We believe in short, intensive programs that lead directly to employment, and we do that by working directly with companies to create the learning journey. Unfortunately, it takes four years to determine whether university scholarship aid is worthwhile, and there is a risk that academic education will not match job market needs. Online learning via coursera and MOOCs have yield poor outcomes, especially in completion rates.


Our fellowship emphasizes both technical and human skills - transferrable abilities that help youngsters become resilient and adaptable. We are also fully online and can scale wherever our employer partners are looking for new workers.


Last but not least, we have demonstrated consistent outcomes over 10 years of 80% job placement 30 days after graduation and a twofold increase in average income.

What will fellows learn from the fellowship?

The first month is a full-time intense program that teaches the core skills required by our employer partners. Weekly online live sessions, self-work courses, mock interviews, phone simulations, grammar, typing tests, and BPO industry information are all part of the curriculum.   Life skills, work ethics, and financial literacy are also taught to fellows. Fellows are endorsed to our employer partners and given job placement support in the second month. They continue to receive career mentorship and career development assistance in the third and fourth month of the fellowship.

What is the cost of this fellowship?

The ACED-BagoSphere BPO Fellowship is $500 USD each student.


We are able to grant full scholarships to eligible youth thanks to the generous donations of our funders. However, as part of their commitment to undertake the fellowship, students must still pay a small commitment fee.

Who is eligible for this program?

If you are a Filipino over the age of 18, you can apply for this program. You are at least a high school graduate, unemployed or working part-time, and currently residing in the Philippines.


Because the training is entirely virtual, all you'll need is a stable internet connection, a smartphone, and earphones/headset with a microphone. A laptop or desktop computer is advised so that you can practice computer skills and become acquainted with IT technologies that are required for a call center job. It will be advantageous if you have basic familiarity of online meeting platforms such as Zoom and Google Hangouts, and having a conducive learning environment will assist you in remaining focused throughout the program.

Is there a certificate provided at the end of the program?

Yes. We will provide a certificate from Ateneo Center for Educational Development and BagoSphere once you have completed the program and complied with all the requirements.

 

How do I secure a spot for the program?

To ensure a conducive learning environment for all our students, program intakes are limited.

After you register for the program, applicants need to complete online assessments to determine if the program is suitable for you. Once you're accepted, you'll receive a confirmation with the program details and intake dates.
