The 𝐒𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐦 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐄𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐨𝐲𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐒𝐭𝐮𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 (𝐒𝐏𝐄𝐒), initiated by the 𝐃𝐞𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐋𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐫 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐄𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐨𝐲𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 (𝐃𝐎𝐋𝐄), was created to provide short-term employment to students during summer or semestral breaks. Its goal is to help students pursue their education by earning while gaining real-world experience in government and private offices.

Thank you, SPES students, for your dedication and valuable contributions!
