and Armscor Shooting Center (La Union) at the City of San Fernando. But,
unfortunately, Partas and Armscor were not able to approve immediately whilst
LEIAAI, on the other hand, had the time to read our proposal and approve right

the students and the employees whether they are participatory or not and LEIAAI
is located at a place where only few people pass by which makes the school
unknown to others. Hence, solutions for this problem are formulated and

company. This shows the elements that the company has that others do not have

decrease the chances of losing the company’s existing and future advantages.

improvement. The researchers, through this study, will help them use their full
