Self-evaluation and Enquiry Guide in ETEEAP
For those who are interested to join the ETEEAP, here are some of the important points you need to keep in mind:
- ETEEAP is a five-year-minimum work experience degree awarding system. It is NOT a program, option or way to continue with your unfinished college degree. The five years or longer may cover the following examples:
- Five years or longer under one employer (continuous).
- Three years under one employer and another two years under another employer (Total of five years, aggregate).
- Two years under one employer then stopped for two years. Then rehired for another three years by the same employer (Total is five years, aggregate).
- Overlapping employment under multiple employers are considered one. For example:
- Three years working for a marketing company while at the same time doing a Virtual Assistant job. These are overlapping jobs and although under the same field are considered as three years, NOT six years.
- Four years working at a fast food and at the same time working in a food factory. This is counted as four years, NOT eight years.
- It is NOT a fast-track degree program, but it is evaluating your work experience against the subjects and units in the relevant degree. If your credentials meet the minimum requirements for enrollment in the program, you will be accepted and will enroll the remaining units/subjects that were not covered by your work credentials. Otherwise you have to enroll in the regular program, not under ETEEAP.
- You need to be a Filipino citizen. Some schools accept dual citizenship.
- You need to have a high school graduate equivalent credentials (Old curriculum, Senior High School graduate, ALS graduate). Your document should have any of the following remarks:
- Secondary or High School Graduate Equivalent
- Eligible for Tertiary Education
- Eligible for College
- If you have started college, then you have automatically met the high school graduate requirement.
- You cannot choose the degree that you want to take up unless it is really aligned to your work experience. Therefore you need to do a REALISTIC SELF-EVALUATION when you apply or enquire, and as you do, please KEEP YOUR DREAM DEGREE OUT OF YOUR MIND.
- If you send an enquiry, don’t just say, “Where can I enroll?”, “Which schools deliver online?”, “Are there ETEEAP schools in so-and-so province/city?”, or any similar to these questions. You need to specify the following in the correct order:
- Your work experience that meets the above-mentioned criteria (If you don’t have them yet, then you should not continue with your enquiry).
- Provide a brief detail of your functions and responsibilities at your work.
- Provide the highest education level you have achieved after high school. If you are a high school graduate, mention if it was under the old curriculum, regular senior high school or ALS.
The following are additional information that are helpful to you when you do your self-evaluation.
Para sa mga nais mag-inquire, pakisundan ang format na ito para magabayan namin kayo sa tamang landas (kasama na ang mga anonymous posts/enquiries sa Facebook group at page). At pakatandaan na ang ETEEAP ay nag-a-award ng degree na naaayon sa inyong work experiences.
Mga impormasyon na kailangan sa pag-enquire:
- Work experience (At least 5 years straight or aggregate in the same field). Makakatulong ang impormasyon sa link na ito: Sino and Pwede sa ETEEAP
- Other work experiences. Kahit yung nakaraang trabaho ninyo.
- Education level na natapos.
- Your age (optional if you are above 23)
- Preferred degree (If relevant to work experience. If you are in the BPO or factory and you want to take up nursing, it is not relevant.)
- Gumawa kayo ng CV ninyo. May sample tayo sa link na ito: Sample Documents
- Humanap ng school na may offer sa degree na akma sa inyong trabaho. May link sa listahan ng mga school sa ibaba.
- Itanong sa ETEEAP admin ng school na napili ninyo kung paano ninyo maipadala ang mga requirement ninyo para kayo ay ma-evaluate.
Nandito ang link sa listahan ng mga deputized school ng CHED (ETEEAP DHEIs). May naidagdag pa mula noong January 2023 pero hindi pa na-update ng CHED.
Another important point: Karamihang ETEEAP schools ngayon ay hindi face to face. Either online or modular sila, o kaya ay hybrid online-modular. Ito ay para sa mga OFW na magkakaiba ang time zones at hindi rin makauwi para mag-aral, o hindi rin convenient para sa online synchronous learning. Kaya hindi kailangang sa inyong lugar ang school na hanapin ninyo.
Please take note on the following questions that we cannot answer:
1) Tuition and fee schedules unless the school is in our featured institutions.
2) Learning and transaction procedures.
3) Enrollment schedules.
Yung mga school ang makakasagot niyan.
Para maiwasan din ang hindi kinakailangan na extrang trabaho ng mga evaluator sa school ay pakitingnan ninyo ang self-evaluation guide sa ibaba. Ito ay para hindi masayang ang kanilang oras sa pag-evaluate sa mga document na hindi relevant sa mga offerded degree nila.
How to self-evaluate
Mga karaniwang tanong ng mga aplikante sa ETEEAP:
– Pwede bang mamili ng degree?
– Anong degree ang akma sa akin?
– Paano kung undergraduate ako ng isang degree?
Pwedeng ba akong mamili ng degree?
– Hindi, kung iisang field ang work experience at 5 years lang. Ito ay kapit sa mga less than 30 years old.
– Oo, kung may dalawa o tatlong field ka na work experience at tig-limang taon ang bawat isa. Ibig sabihin ay 10 to 15 years ka nang nagtatrabaho, at ang iyong edad ay nasa pagitan ng 33 at 40 (o mas matanda pa).
Halimbawa:
Undergraduate ka ng nursing. Nagtrabaho ka ng 15 years sa mga field na ito:
1) Electronics components/semiconductor (5 years)
2) Service crew, cook at cashier ng isang restaurant (5 years)
3) Pina-manage sa iyo ng tiyuhin mo ang isang branch ng grocery store nila (5 years)
Tanong: Pwede mo bang ituloy yung nursing mo sa ETEEAP?
Sagot: Hindi
Anong mga degree ang pwede sa iyo? Doon sa mga experience field sa itaas ito ang mga katapat.
1) BIT Electronics major
2) BIT Food Service Management major
3) BSBA
