How to Engage with Clients

So what to do next if clients or users emailed you or have sent messages using our OneChat chat application?

If the client is looking for advise, please engage them and help them with their needs. Please check if there are existing services or programs in your organization which they can avail of in order for you to assist them.

If the client is interested in having you as a resource person or lecturer for their activity or event, you may lead them to this page (click here) to allow them to apply for support either from DOST Regional Offices or from DOST-TAPI. The support usually is in terms of travel expenses as well as minimal honoraria.

If the client is an MSME that is in need of in-depth and more focused assistance from you, you may lead them to this page (click here) to allow them to apply for our consultancy programs under the DOST Small Enterprise Technology Upgrading Program (SETUP).
