What is ETEEAP?

ETEEAP is an acronym for Expanded Tertiary Education Equivalency and Accreditation Program.  It is an alternative education program in the Philippines that allows working professionals, but were either unable to finish their college education or were completely unable to step into college for different reasons, to earn a bachelor’s degree without going through traditional schooling methods.

Under this program, professionals with five or more years of work experience can use the knowledge, experiences, achievements and skills they obtained through their jobs to earn school credits that are then deducted from the total number of units or credits that they are required to earn before they graduate. This way, the more professional experience the ETEEAP students demonstrate, the sooner they can earn their bachelor’s degree.

Legitimacy of the Program

ETEEAP operates by virtue of the Executive Order Number 330 signed by former President Fidel V. Ramos on May 10, 1996. It is currently administered by the Philippine Commission on Higher Education (CHED) through deputized and qualified colleges and universities who applied to offer the program. It had become part of the academic programs of these institutions and graduates are not treated differently from regular students.

At the moment, this program is only offered to Filipino nationals. However, a few higher learning institutions in the US have adopted this system that they offer to any nationality under the curriculum of the state where the institutions are located.

How does the system work?

Students aiming for a bachelor’s degree through the traditional method usually complete their college or university education in four or five years depending on the curriculum and the number of units or credits they complete per term. Some schools are under the trimester program while a few others are still under the two-semester system. Such may also affect the length of time students spend with the institution until the completion of all their requirements. Under the regular program, students are only allowed a maximum number of units/credits to complete within one term even if they are capable to take up more. Other institutions, especially those that offer regular asynchronous online or distance learning program in their system, have a minimum residency which allows the students who can complete their requirements earlier to enroll on the next term. For instance, one online university allow students between 1 and 8 courses, which is equivalent to between 3 and 25 credits, per term. The maximum length of a term is 98 days and the minimum residency is 50 days.

With the ETEEAP, the basic concept is the same. Deputized institutions normally follow a maximum units or credits per semester. However ETEEAP students are entitled credits upon submission of their application for enrollment which means quicker completion of their degree. In many cases students may gain more than half of all the requirements on their degree upon enrollment which enables them to complete their four-year bachelor’s degree between 6 and 18 months, and a masters degree that normally takes between two and three years can be completed within two or three semesters.

Here is the reason why. While students in regular programs need to complete all the requirements in the curriculum based on the brick-and-mortar standard or traditional way, ETEEAP students’ professional experiences, knowledge, skills, prior education, work experiences and training, awards and achievements relevant to a course or field under the institution’s academic programs are evaluated and used in exchange for academic credits, or in the system called CLCs.

What are CLCs?

CLC is acronym for Classroom Learning Credits. The deputized institutions’ Academic Review Board (ARB) or the equivalent determines the candidates’ knowledge, skills, prior education, experience, awards and achievements relevant to a course or field under their academic programs which the students wish to enroll. Consequently, CLC’s can potentially be awarded for equivalent classroom, laboratory, or workshops normally taken up by regular students. Transfer credits for courses or subjects completed at other colleges or universities (if available) are also awarded using the ETEEAP.  

This unique program uses equivalent competency standards, a comprehensive assessment system and combined assessment methodologies to assess the student’s experiences previous college level education and experience. Based upon this assessment, qualified students are awarded CLCs, which reduces the in-classroom time required for graduation. In the ETEEAP system, all subjects and credits or units that gained CLCs from the students’ credentials are considered complete. Only the remaining courses or subjects that did not have any equivalent in the evaluation process will be enrolled and should be completed in the traditional way. Other schools offer blended or online learning system to complete any requirement that was not awarded CLCs.

Some colleges in the United States as well as few other countries have adopted this system using different terminology and under different names but the same principles. However there is a slight difference in the US. One college that offers the same system under a different name requires that students must complete all classroom assigned “homeworks” in each subject prior to being given credit for any class or program, and all students are required to take comprehensive final exams in each subject for which they received a CLC award. Any courses for which the students were not awarded a CLC will be completed in the traditional way.

Early History of ETEEAP

During the infancy of this program in the Pre-Internet era, thousands of Filipino professionals who had been working in the different fields of expertise for many years all over the world were able to earn their bachelor’s degrees through semi-blended learning. Candidates initially had to attend to their classes on campus to complete the subjects that were not awarded CLCs. However, some of the deputized institutions had to send their professors to the countries where a number of students needed to enroll to the program as their employers won’t allow them to go back home to complete their requirements. The employers were willing to pay for all the expenses of sending the professors to where the students were than losing revenues in allowing their employees to take a few months’ leave to complete their academics requirements. Many of these students attended their graduation at the university along with other regular and fellow ETEEAP students later when they had the chance to go home on holidays.

With the advent of the Internet and the emergence of distance learning methods, software and systems, most ETEEAP-deputized colleges and universities offer the program online, so anyone can take their courses from anywhere in the world as long as they have a computer and access to the Internet.

Are there graduate programs offered through ETEEAP?

The ETEEAP was introduced to initially offer undergraduate programs (bachelors degree). But some deputized institutions applied to offer graduate programs with the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) and were granted.

One of these is the Baguio Central University (BCU). Besides the undergraduate and graduate programs that they offer in their traditional system, they also offer these in the ETEEAP through blended and online learning to complete the subjects that did not earn any CLCs.

Update: In December 2021, the Commission on Higher Education (CHEd) stopped deputizing HEI’s for graduate programs with the CMO#29-s2021.

In what ways ETEEAP is beneficial?

Along with millions at home, there are more than 10 million Filipinos working or/and migrants in almost all countries all over the world. Many of these were not able to complete their college or university degree while some have not completed their undergraduate requirements, but as they continue to gain experiences in the field of their employment and have to take up or about to be assigned to supervisory positions, the issue of academic qualifications started to come up. This requires them to go back to school or to take up additional training and courses to entitle them the needed credits that qualify them to higher job positions and promotions. Most countries and institutions require their employees to reach a certain academic level to be qualified in a job position. However the experiences they had gained in their workplace throughout the years weigh much more than the qualifications of new graduates on a piece of paper in their hands as their only credentials. This is the huge gap that needed to be filled up and the ETEEAP has been evolving to solve this problem. Thanks to all the institutions and people who continue to support this program. And many thanks to the Philippine government that spearheaded this system.

Deputized institutions

As for the CHED deputized schools, colleges and universities, we are preparing a page where visitors can see the list along with the programs that the institutions offer in their ETEEAP. Some of these schools will also be featured in this site, and one aforementioned university, BCU, will have the first opportunity. You can see them on the footer below as they come. Schools who want to be featured may also contact us for details.

Who We Are

This site was set up to help our visitors understand what ETEEAP is. We disseminate information about a program instituted by the Philippine government that helped many Filipinos reach their secular goals. Our developers and contributors are members of communities who had experienced the lives of Overseas Filipino Workers (OFW) first hand, and this inspired them to create a place where one can get all the needed information about ETEEAP.

Many of the estimated ten million Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs) and migrants were forced beyond their control to forego pursuing the necessary education that qualify them to a job position but were nevertheless given the chance by their employers. As they continued working they had gained much experiences more than what they would have learned inside the classrooms had they first pursued the education related to such jobs. Others were able to gain much work experiences while performing certain functions in different institutions, while others had set up their own businesses that thrived throughout the years that some of these had become models in their respective fields. However, because of the prevailing culture of today where a piece of paper is more preferred as an evidence of one’s qualification more than the real ability, experience and capability the person possesses, a solution was provided to fill the gap, the ETEEAP. The information here will benefit not just the OFWs but all Filipino nationals whether they are at home or overseas.

We however would like to emphasize that we are not a school or entity that offers courses or degrees, and we do not represent any education institution. However, we feature for free colleges and universities that offer their programs through the ETEEAP if they wish. You can find them including the complete information about their programs on this link. Please feel free to explore this website as we have most, if not all, of the information you need to understand and get the whole picture of what ETEEAP is. These can also help you decide and prepare in case you want to avail of these services from one of the Deputized HEIs (DHEI) of the CHEd.

For education institutions, companies,teachers, tech enthusiasts and hobbyists who want to set up their IT system, we also provide services in this area which includes website setup (domain registration, hosting and building), Google Workspace (formerly called G Suite) setup assistance, IT infrastructure setup, server setup and other relevant systems. We have experienced and qualified people and business partners who are ready to help you.

You may tap or click on the different links below that will take you to where you can find the information you need. We also appreciate feed backs and questions that will help us improve our site and add necessary and relevant information that are helpful to others.

Finally, we also acknowledge that no matter how noble our intention is to provide informative articles and guidance to our visitors and friends who are looking for the answers to their questions, we also need the financial assistance to keep this site running. Some visitors are asking how to donate to help in this endeavor, so we have provided a donate button for this purpose on the upper right hand corner of the page as well as on the ‘Contact Us’ at the bottom of the page. You may also click here to send your donation. Thank you for your generosity and we will do our best to make this site as useful as we can.

Application Procedure:

  1. Punan ang application form.
  2. Maghanada ng detalyadong resume o CV kasama ng isang cover Letter of Intent. Banggitin din dito ang nais i-enroll ng aplikante. May sample tayong introductory letter dito na pwede ninyong i-download. Mayroon din dito na gawa sa MS Word na pwede ninyong i-edit na lang.

  9. Kung may mga dokumento ng mga organisasyon at mga institution na kasapi kayo na doon ay may karanasan din kayo sa larangan o kasanayan na kung saan nais ninyong mag-enroll ay pwede rin ninyo itong isama.
  10. Para sa pag-aaplay sa online, i-scan ninyo ang lahat ng dokumento na nabanggit na at ipadala ito sa email ng adminstrator ng HEI kung saan nais ninyong mag-enroll.

Kapag na-submit na ang mga nasabing mga dokumento ay isasailalim ang aplikante sa sumusunod:

– Pre-Interview/Pre-Assessment (Ito yung pagsusuri sa mga dokumentong isinumite ng aplikante.)
– Schedule of Psychological Test
(Bibigyan ng HEI ang aplikante ng tagubilin kung paano ito gagawin)
– Panel Interview
(Bibigyan ng HEI ang aplikante ng tagubilin kung paano ito gagawin)

Pagkatapos nito ang ETEEAP coordinator o sinumang inatasan niya ay magbibigay ng kasagutan sa aplikante kung ito ay kuwalipikado. Malalaman din ng aplikante kung ano ang mga asignatura/subjects at units/credits ang nabigyan ng CLC, at kung ano pa ang kailangan niyang i-enroll. Dito na rin niya malalaman kung magkano ang kailangan niyang bayaran.

Ang pag-eenroll sa ETEEAP sa karamihan ng mga HEI ay araw-araw kaya hindi kailangang sundan ng mga estudyante ang karaniwang timetable na ginagamit sa regular na mga klase. Ang pag-aaral ng mga estudyante ng ETEEAP ay tinatawag na asynchronous. Lahat ng mga asignatura at mga kahilingan (requirements) ay dadaluhan at tatapusin ng estudyante sa pamamagitan ng online learning na hindi kailangang sumabay sa iba pang mga estudyante.

Ang sumusunod ay isang mahalagang kahilingan (requirement): 

Para sa mga nais mag-enroll ng Masters o Doctors degree, ang college o university kung saan nagtapos ang aplikante ng kanyang bachelors o masters degree na kasama sa isinumite niya ay kailangang magpadala ng kopya ng Official Transcript of Record (OTR) sa HEI kung saan mag-eenroll ang aplikante. Kasama na din dito ang ilang komento nila tungkol sa aplikante.

Para sa mga document na kailangan ninyo, nandito ang link para sa application form at sample ng DFR, CV, COE at application letter.

Link to sample documents

Enrollment Procedure:

Kapag ang school ay nag-abiso na sa aplikante na siya ay kuwalipikadong mag-enroll, ibibigay na rin sa kanya ang mga subject sa pinili niyang degree na hindi nabigyan ng Classroom Learning Credits (CLCs). Ito ang kinakailangan niyang i-enroll. Ipapaalam na rin sa kanya kung ano ang mga bayarin niya at kung paano niya babayaran ito. Bibigyan din siya ng karagdagang mga tagubilin kung ano pang mga hakbang ang kanyang gagawin upang makompleto ang kanyang pag-eenroll.

Fees and Costs:

Ang mga bayarin o fees ay malalaman lamang pagkatpaos ng evaluation ng mga isinumiteng mga dokumento ng aplikante. Walang tiyak na kasagutan ang katanungan ng karamihan na “Magkano?”. Ngunit pwedeng tantiyahin ito kung alam natin ang tuition per unit sa HEI at kung ilang unit ang pwedeng i-enroll sa isang semester ng mga regular na estudyante nila. Pagkatapos ay idagdag natin ang iba pang mga fee katulad ng enrollment at iba pang mga miscellaneous fee.

Para matantiya ang gagastusin ng isang estudyante ng ETEEAP hanggang sa matapos siya gamit ang impormasyon para sa regular ng mga estudyante, karamihan sa mga kumukuha ng bachelors degree ay natatapos nila ito sa isa hanggang dalawang semester. Ang mga kumukuha naman ng Masters dergree ay natatapos sa dalawa hanggang tatlong semester. Kadalasan na hindi isang bayaran ang buong semester kundi nahahati ito sa tatlo o apat na bayaran. Ngunit may mga school na nagbibigay ng discount sa mga nagbabayad nang minsanan.

Sa mga online na transaction ay ipapadala ang bayad sa pamamagitan ng bank transfer o iba pang online na paraan.

May halimbawa tayo sa article na ito kung gusto ninyong tingnan:
Magkano ang ETEEAP?

Confirmation of Enrollment:

Kapag natanggap na ng school ang unang bayad, mapapadala ng email ito sa aplikante kasama na ang official receipt. Ipapaalam din sa kanila na hintayin nila ang imbitasyon ng kanilang mga propesor na mag-join sa kanilang online class.

Start of Classes:

Ang mga klase sa ETEEAP ay hindi katulad ng traditional na sistema na ginagamit ng mga regular na mga estudyante. Ang pag-aaral dito ay tinatawag na asynchronous. Nangangahulgan ito na kung mas marami ang panahon ang isang estudyante na tapusin ang mga homework at iba pang requirement niya ay mas maaga siyang grumaduate.

Mode of Lesson Delivery:

Karamihan sa mga deputized HEI ay online ang transaction lalo na ngayong Covid-19 Pandemic. Gumagamit sila nga ibat-ibang online learning tools na madaling mahanap sa Internet. Ang iba naman ay gumawa na rin ng sariling mga online teaching tools. Dahil dito ay madali na lang mag-aral ang mga estudyante. Ang kailangan lang ay isang computer at connection sa Interent.

—————–

Ang page na ito ay laging ina-update dahil sa mga pagbabago sa mga kaayusan sa ETEEAP at ng CHED. Ang mga pagbabagong ito ay para makaalinsabay sa pang-globong pangkalahatang sistema ng edukasyon at para na rin magiging maayos ang daloy ng pag-aaral ng mga estudyante sa gitna ng Covid-19 pandemic. Pwede kayong magpadala ng inyong mga karanasan sa pag-aaral sa ETEEAP upang maidagdag natin dito para na rin sa kapakinabangan ng iba pang mga kasalukuyang nag-aaral at gusto pang mag-aral.

Maraming salamat.

Ano Ang ETEEAP

Ang ETEEAP ay acronym para sa Expanded Tertiary Education Equivalency and Accreditation Program.  Ito ay isang alternatibong programa ng edukasyon sa Pilipinas na nagbibigay ng pagkakataon sa mga Pilipinong nagtatrabaho o naghahanapbuhay na ngunit hindi pa nakapagtapos, o hindi man lang nakapag-umpisa, sa kolehiyo sa ibat-ibang kadahilanan na magpatuloy ng kanilang pag-aaral at makatapos ng kurso sa kolehiyo habang naghahanapbuhay.  Ang pag-abot nila ng kanilang kahilingan para makatapos ay hindi sa tradisyunal na paraan kundi may inilaan na natatanging sistema na sadyang inihanda para sa kanila.

Sa programa at sistemang ito, ang mga nagtatrabahong empleyado o kaya yung mga may sariling negosyo na may karanasan at kasanayan sa mga ito sa loob ng lima o higit pang taon ay pwedeng magamit na kapalit ng unit o credit ng mga asignatura o subject sa kolehiyo. Sinusuri ng ETEAAP ang mga kasanayan at karanasan sa trabaho o hanapbuhay ng isang aplikante at bibigyan nila ito ng katumbas na credit o unit para doon sa mga asignatura ng bachelors degree, o ang katumbas nito, na nais tapusin ng estudyante. Habang mas marami ang kasanayan, karanasan, mga hindi-pormal na pagsasanay, seminar at mga training na pinagdaanan at nakamit ng isang aplikante sa kanyang hanapbuhay o trabaho, mas maraming credit ang makukuha niya na ibabawas sa mga kahilingan o requirements sa kanyang mga asignatura (subjects). Sa ganitong paraan kaunti na lang na subject ang kailangang i-enroll ng estudyante para makapagtapos siya sa kolehiyo at matatapos niya nang maaga ang kanyang college o university degree. 

Ito ba ay Legitimate o Legal?

Oo, ito ay lehitimo at legal. Ang ETEEAP ay inilunsad sa pamamagitan ng Executive Order Number 330 (EO#330) na nilagdaan mismo ng Pangulong Fidel V. Ramos sa kanyang administrasyon noong Mayo 10, 1996. Ito ay pinangangasiwaan at ipinapatupad ng Philippine Commission on Higher Education (CHED) sa pamamagitan ng mga tinatawag na Deputized Colleges and Universities o Deputized Higher Education Institutions (DHEI) na nag-aalok ng kani-kanilang programa. Ang mga ito ay naaprubahan ng CHED na maging agent ng ETEEAP, at naging bahagi na ng programa nila ang sistemang ito. Ang mga estudyante nila na magtatapos sa pamamagitan ng ETEEAP ay hindi itinuturing na iba kundi sila din ay katulad ng mga estudyanteng nagtapos sa regular o standard na programa at sistema nila.

Sa kasalukuyan ay sa mga Pilipino lang ito inaalok, nasa Pilipinas man sila o nasa ibang bansa bilang immigrant o OFW. Bagaman hindi pa tumatanggap ang ETEEAP ng hindi Pilipino, may mga ilang kolehiyo sa Estados Unidos ng America na nag-aalok din ng katulad na programa. At ito ay bukas para sa lahat ng nationality. Ang kanilang curriculum ay nakasalig sa kung ano ang sistema ng estado (state) na kinaroroonan ng mga eskuwelahan na ito.

Ano Ang Sistema Nito?

Ang mga estudyante na kaka-graduate lang ng high school at gustong kumuha ng isang bachelors degree (undergraduate program) mula sa isang college o university ay kinakailangang dumaan sa normal na proseso ng pag-aaral. Kadalasan ay natatapos ang isang bachelors degree mula apat hanggang limang taon depende sa degree at sa kung ilang units o credits ang natatapos nila tuwing semester. Sa regular na proseso ay may limitadong bilang ng unit na pwedeng i-enroll ng isang estudyante at hindi maaaring humigit dito kahit pa kaya ito ng estudyante. Sa mga university na may full online program ay ganoon din. At may limitado din na bilang ng araw para sa isang semester bago payagan na mag-enroll sa susunod. Halimbawa, isang full-online university ang nagpapahintulot ng isa hanggang walong subject lang sa isang semester, na ito ay katumbas ng 3 hanggang 25 na unit. Ang haba ng isang semester ay 98 na araw at ang pinaka-maikling bilang ng araw ay 50 (tinatawag nilang minimum residency) bago payagan na mag-enroll para sa susunod na semester. Ito ay kahit pa natapos ng estudyante ang lahat ng mga kahilingan o requirement nang mas maaga rito.

Sa ETEEAP ay pareho din ang sistema. Ang mga deputized na eskuwelahan ay sumusunod din sa standard na bilang ng subject at unit sa bawat semester. Ano ang pagkakaiba? Ang edad ng isa na pwedeng matanggap sa ETEEAP ay 23 o pataas. At bago mag-enroll ang isang estudyante sa ETEEAP ay kailangan muna niyang mag-submit ng lahat ng katibayan ng kanyang nakamit na kagalingan o acquired skills habang siya ay nagtatrabaho. Ang mga ito ay dapat na suportado ng mga dokumento katulad ng employment certificate at detalyadong mga tungkulin at atas ng aplikante sa kanyang trabaho na nilagdaan o certified ng kanyang amo. Kung may mga seminar at mga training na nadaluhan at napagdaanan niya ay pwede rin niyang i-submit ang mga ito. Ang lahat ng ito ay maaaring mabigyan ng katumbas na credit o unit. Miyentras mas marami ang karanasan, kasanayan at mga hindi pormal na mga pag-aaral, training, seminar at mga nakamit na mga award sa ibat-ibang larangan ang isang aplikante, mas marami ang nababawas na mga unit at subject na kinakailangan niyang i-enroll. Kadalasan ay mas mahigit ito sa kalahati ng kinakailangang i-enroll ng isang bagong graduate na estduyante sa high school o regular na programa. Dahil dito ang mga estudyante ng ETEEAP ay maaaring nakakapagtapos ng kanilang bachelors degree mula 6 hanggang 18 buwan lamang, at ang Masters Degree ay 12 hanggang 18 na buwan.

Ang tawag sa ibinibigay na credit sa mga estudyante ng ETEEAP ay Classroom Learning Credits (CLC). Ano ang pwedeng i-submit ng isang estudyante na maaaring mabigyan ng CLC? Ito ang ilang mga halimbawa:

  • Certificate of Employment sa inyong kasalukuyang trabaho.
  • Detalyadong atas o function ninyo sa inyong trabaho. Ito ay tinatawag ding Detailed Functions and Responsibilities (DFR)
  • Certificate of Employment sa inyong nakaraang trabaho.
  • DFR sa inyong nakaraang trabaho.
  • Kung kayo ay may sariling negosyo, pwedeng magpagawa ng certificate mula sa tatlo o mahigit pang cliente o customer ninyo.
  • Mga organisasyon na sinalihan ninyo. May atas ba kayong ginampanan doon na pwedeng igawan ng certificate ng inyong mga leader?
  • Kayo ba ay aktibo sa inyong simbahan? Anong mga atas ninyo ang pwedeng magawan ng certificate?
  • May mga seminar at training ba kayong nadaluhan o napagdaanan?
  • May mga proyekto ba kayong nagawa?
  • May mga short course ba kayong natapos?
  • Kayo ba ay nagkaroon ng mga award, tropeo o medalya sa isang larangan? May certificate din ba ito o larawan na pwede ninyong isama sa inyong mga credential.

Ang mga nasa listahan ang ilan lamang sa mga pwedeng i-submit sa mga ETEEAP-deputized college o university na posibleng mabigyan ng CLC.

Sino ang Mga Nakinabang na sa ETEEAP?

Noong inilunsad ito noong 1996 ay maraming Pilipino ang kaagad na nag-enroll dito. Maraming OFW noon ang nais makatapos ng pag-aaral dahil matagal na sila sa abroad at naging bihasa na sila sa kanilang mga trabaho at larangan. Ngunit dahil sa walang Internet noon ay kinailangan nilang umuwi sa Pilipinas para tapusin ang kakulangan sa kanilang mga requirement na hindi nabigyan ng CLC.

Ngunit may ilan sa mga amo na hindi pinayagan ang kanilang mga empleyado na umuwi ngunit nagmungkahi sila na kung pwedeng ipadala ng college o university ang kanilang mga propesor doon sa lugar mismo ng trabaho ng mga estudyante. Gagastusan ng mga kompanya ang pagpapadala ng mga propesor. Ito ay pinayagan ng ilang mga unibersidad at nakatapos din ang mga estudyante. Saka na lang sila nag-martsa para sa kanilang graduation kasama ang iba pang mga estudyante ng unibersidad nang sila ay makauwi sa kanilang bakasyon.

Sa pagdating ng Internet at paglago ng sistema ng edukasyon sa buong mundo kasama na ang paglitaw ng mga online na sistema ng pag-aaral, karamihan na sa mga ETEEAP-deputized na mga unibersidad ang nag-aalok ng kanilang programa sa pamamagitan ng online asynchronous learning (OAL). Ito ay lalong naging kapaki-pakinabang ngayong panahon ng Covid-19 pandemic. Tama din naman ito sapagkat karamihang estudyante sa ETEEAP ay nasa ibat-ibang bansa at sa ibat-ibang panig ng Pilipinas, maliban sa sila rin ay nagtatrabaho o naghahanapbuhay.

Nag-aalok din ba ang ETEEAP ng mga graduate program?

Ang ETEEAP ay inilunsad pangunahin na para sa mga Pilipino na wala pang college degree kaya karamihan noong una ay mga undergraduate program (bachelors degree) lang ang inaalok. Ngunit ang ilang deputized na agent institution ang nag-apply sa Commission on Higher Education (CHED) na mag-alok ng mga graduate program at ito naman ay pinayagan.

Ang isa sa mga ito ay ang Baguio Central University (BCU) na naka-feature sa website na ito. Maliban sa mga undergraduate at graduate program na inaalok nila sa traditional system, inaalok din nila ito sa ETEEAP gamit ang blended at online learning para makompleto ng mga estudyante ang mga unit o credit na hindi nabigyan ng CLC.

Paano nakinabang ang marami sa ETEEAP?

Mahigit 10 million na Pilipino ang nagtatrabaho sa halos lahat ng mga bansa sa buong daigdig. Marami sa mga ito ang hindi nakatapos ng kanilang pag-aaral sa kolehiyo o unibersidad, at ang iba naman ay nakatapos ngunit dahil sa nagtagal na sila sa kanilang trabaho ay kinakilangan nilang ma-promote dito. Ngunit ang academic qualification ang nagiging hadlang sa promotion nila. Dito na dumarating ang pagkakataon na kinakailangan nilang bumalik muna sa unibersidad para kumuha ng karagdagang mga qualification katulad ng Masters Degree. Dahil kung hindi nila ito makamit, maaaring ang mga mas batang aplikante na bagaman walang masyadong karanasan ngunit may mas mataas na level ng edukasyon ang tatanggapin, lalo na at ang ilang mga bansa kasama na ang Pilipinas ay pangunahing kahilingan ang education background para maging kuwalipikado sa isang posisyon.

Gayun pa man, ang mga karanasan at kasanayan ng isa sa kanyang trabaho sa maraming taon ay mas matimbang kaysa sa isang bagong graduate na tanging isang piraso lang ng papel at mga taon na ginugol niya sa loob ng klase ang kanyang hawak bilang ebedensiya ng kanyang kakayahan. Ito ang napakalaking agwat, bangin o gap na kailangang mabigyan ng tulay, at nagpapasalamat tayo sa paglulunsad ng gobyerno ng Pilipinas sa ETEEAP na siyang lumutas ng problemang ito. Maraming salamat dito at sa lahat ng mga college at university na patuloy na sumusuporta. Kasama na rin dito ang mga administrator ng mga eskuwelahang ito sa pinasasalamatan natin.
