5 Education in the Philippines The educational system of the Philippines was patterned both from the educational systems of Spain and the United States. However, after the liberation of the Philippines in 1946, the system changed radically.

6 Education in the Philippines The former educational system of the Philippines was composed of 6 years of elementary education starting at the age of 6, [3] and 4 years of high school education starting at the age of 12. [4] With this system, compulsory education is not enforced.

7 Education in the Philippines However, 2011 signaled the start of the implementation of a new educational system, which is the K-12 educational system, [5] which includes the new curricula for all schools With this system, education will be now compulsory.

8 K-12 Educational System There are four "phases" during the implementation of the new system. These are: 1. Phase I: Laying the Foundations Its goal is to finally implement the universal kindergarten (offered since on S.Y ), and the "development of the (entire) program". 2. Phase II: Modeling and Migration Its goal is to promote the enactment of the basic education law, to finally start of the phased implementation of the new curriculum for Grades 1 to 4 and 7 to 10, and for the modeling of the senior high school. 3. Phase III: Complete Migration Its goal is to finally implement the Grades 11 and 12 or the senior high school, and to signal the end of migration to the new educational system. 4. Phase IV: Completion of the Reform Its goal is to complete the implementation of the K 12 education system.

9 Technical and Vocational Education Technical and vocational education is offered to enhance students' practical skills at institutions usually accredited and approved by TESDA. Institutions may be government operated, often by provincial government, or private. The vast majority are privately operated and most call themselves colleges. They may offer programs ranging in duration from a couple of weeks to two-year diploma courses. Programs can be technology courses like automotive technology, computer technology, and electronic technology; service courses such as caregiver, nursing aide, hotel and restaurant management; and trades courses such as electrician, plumber, welder, automotive mechanic, diesel mechanic, heavy vehicle operator & practical nursing. Upon graduating from most of these courses, students may take an examination from TESDA to obtain the relevant certificate or diploma.

24 What is ETEEAP? Expanded Tertiary Education Equivalency and Accreditation Program is a comprehensive program of identifying, accessing, validating and assigning equivalent college-level learning for prior learning from formal, non-formal and informal training and relevant work experiences toward the final granting of appropriate academic degree. Through this program, an individual may be granted a diploma for a degree after a competency-based evaluation from established equivalency competencies standards and a comprehensive assessment system employing written tests, interviews, skills demonstration, portfolio and other creative assessment methodologies.

25 Who are Qualified? The minimum qualification criteria of applicants to the accreditation and equivalency program, in addition to established Filipino citizenship, should include the following: 1. Completion of secondary school program as evidenced by a high school diploma, or the Philippine Education Placement Test (PEPT) result equivalent to first year college. 2. Employment for an aggregate of at least five (5) years in the industry related to the academic degree program or discipline where equivalency of learning is sought. 3. At least twenty five (25) years old as supported by an NSO authenticated birth certificate.

26 Procedure for application The procedures for application and assessment of learning should consist, at a minimum, of the following: 1. The applicant secures and accomplishes the application form from MSEUF or CHED thru CHED website ( and submit it along with the supporting evidences that establish his/her qualifications, and then pays the application fee. 2. The MSEUF secretariat reviews the application, interviews the applicant and informs him/her in writing of the results of the review and interview. 3. Upon approval of the application, MSEUF requires the applicant to prepare and submit his/her portfolio with the assistance of the institution s career counselor/adviser within an agreed period of time. This portfolio should include descriptions of prior experiences in the context of learning outcomes. The employer concerned should certify all experiences cited by the candidate as having been completed during employment. 4. Upon receipt of the portfolio, MSEUF convenes a panel of assessors to conduct the evaluation. Tests or other forms and instruments, e.g., interviews, actual demonstration of claimed knowledge and skills, written examination, and others that are appropriate to the candidate s needs may be used as needed.

27 Why at MSEUF? The MSEUF was fully accredited and deputized to implement the ETEEAP on May 19, 1999 Offer BSEE With proven ETEEAP curriculum for BSEE

28 Procedure for application 5. After completing the evaluation, the panel of assessors determines the amount of equivalent credit that will be awarded to the candidate by matching the demonstrated training of the candidate with the learning outcomes and standards of the subject or course for which the candidate seeks accreditation and equivalency. 6. A candidate assessed to be deficient in one or more competency units will be required to pursue further learning, with the assistance of a career coordinator or adviser. In this case, a learning contract that defines the learning program is executed between MSEUF and the candidate. Further, assessment is conducted after the completion of the learning program to determine the progress of the candidate toward meeting the learning outcomes and standards specified in the said program; and 7. After satisfying the learning outcomes and appropriate assessment criteria for the course, and having complied with the requirements prescribed by CHED and the institution for the completion of the course, the candidate is awarded the appropriate equivalency credit and/or degree title.
