Ann is waiting to attend the CFO Seminar until I arrive in the Philippines.

After reading Deputy's guide, I understand that I will not be allowed to attend the seminar with her. Is there a waiting area? Or is there somewhere else that I can wait while she takes the seminar? She will attend the seminar in Manila.

If it's going to be, it's up to me!

you could go with her at PRISM office, you just have to wait at the reception area though, seminar usually starts at 9-12am.. Then after the counseling, she has to get her passport to CFO main for certificate and sticker, you could with her too and wait with her until her name's called, then you're done, you two could enjoy a movie after. From my experience, I finished at around 4pm here, and I was alone then, it was so boring waiting. So she really needs someone to talk to while waiting. Goodluck!

Wow, Claudeth did her CFO in Cebu and it was an all-day affair. Maybe Manila is more qualified to process people through the CFO classes.

I went to St. Mary of Euphrasia (Good Spepherd Convent) in Quezon City, it took only 2 hours. Yes they have a waiting area there, its some kind of canteen where you can sit down and watch tv. They also have a CFO office in the compound.

I attend my CFO at St. Marys Euphrasia too in Cubao, Quezon City and they has this canteen-like waiting area. I saw the PRISM office in front of Taft as a chaperon to my friend, there is a waiting area but not as big as the SMEF. I suggest to let her do it now since she already had her visa. Less hassle and more free time with u. LOL :P

Mirasol went to CFO in Manila and there was no waiting area inside. The USC cannot attend the seminar. I don't recall exactly how long it took, but it wasn't all day....maybe 3-4 hours. I walked down the street a little ways and found an internet cafe to surf the net while I waited. It passed the time quickly.

lol, I told Ann if no waiting area, then I chase the girls..

We're going to just play it by ear. I've already been informed that we MUST go to the Mall after success. So I think the movie is later..

thanks for the ideas. I like the Internet Cafe Idea.

If it's going to be, it's up to me!
