A Corporate Social Responsibility Principles of REO Philippines

Accessible Education

REO offers adaptable learning modalities, including online, hybrid, and face-to-face formats, to ensure that the entrance and board examination preparation is both inclusive and accessible to learners nationwide.

Empowerment Through Excellence

By guiding thousands of students to succeed in licensure examinations, particularly in the Certified Public Accountant Licensure Exam, REO not only produces topnotchers—but also supports various programs that help individuals realize their aspirations of becoming board passers, thereby contributing to national development through professional empowerment.

Data Privacy and Ethical Standards

REO strictly complies with the Data Privacy Act of 2012, ensuring responsible handling of student information—a reflection of its ethical business conduct.

Environmental Stewardship

As we prepare future leaders, we also commit to protecting the future of our planet. REO Philippines integrates environmental awareness campaigns and green practices within its campuses and operations. From digital-first learning approaches that reduce paper usage to initiatives like tree planting and sustainable campus programs, we align our educational growth with environmental responsibility.

Investing in Communities

Our responsibility does not end with our students—it extends to the communities we serve. Through outreach programs, skills training, and livelihood projects, REO Philippines aims to uplift local communities across Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao. By partnering with local government units and organizations, we help build sustainable programs that foster long-term development and self-reliance.

Apart from that, REO’s educational scholarships for the UPCAT and Pisay NCE review programs contribute to the empowerment of underserved communities by enhancing academic preparation and promoting career readiness.

A Shared Mission of Real Excellence

Mr. Rex Banggawan envisions the establishment of a strategic, affordable, and high-quality National Review University dedicated to supporting Filipino students in their preparation for entrance and licensure examinations. Since its establishment in 2020, REO Philippines has contributed to 63.30% of total CPALE passers over the past five years. He aspires to transform every review program into a pathway—not only for passing board examinations but also for producing topnotchers across various disciplines.

As the National Review University, our CSR programs are anchored on one belief: education is a catalyst for nation-building. Every scholarship, community initiative, and environmental project we undertake reflects our core mission of real excellence within the walls of the classroom and in every Filipino community we touch. At REO Philippines, our journey to excellence is not ours alone. But a shared mission with our students, partners, and the nation.

Our Commitment

We are committed to sustaining and expanding these efforts, ensuring that every aspiring accountant has access to the tools, opportunities, and inspiration needed to succeed.
