As a result, the training requirements were lowered to ensure that appointments are possible for all subject positions under the TVL tracks with corresponding increase in experience requirements for the overall QS of SHS TVL teachers to still be comparable to those of the other tracks. "They shall be issued provisional appointments which shall be effective not beyond the school year during which the appointments were issued, The appointment shall be subject to reappointment (renewal)Amended QS SHS Teaching Positions, TVL Track, DepEd p.3 ofp. 6 In the same letter, Undersecretary Mateo requests that once the proposed amended QS for SHS TVL teaching positions are approved, they will be applied retroactively to all pending appointments submitted to the Commission since the previous school year. In an earlier letter dated February 1, 2017 addressed to Chairperson Alicia Dela- Rosa Bala, Undersecretary Mateo sought reconsideration of the invalidated appointments of teachers from the Schools Division Office (SDO) of Catanduanes and SDO Meycauayan, to wit: “The appointment of 11 teachers from SDO of Catanduanes for the position of Teacher Ill were invalidated on the basis of not meeting the training requirement which, xxx is at least NC Ill and TMC | (appropriate to the specialization). However, upon further review by the Central Office and as raised by various field offices and applicants, some specializations offered by TESDA are only up to NC 1! and/or TMC |. Thus, meeting the QS, specifically the training requirements, would be impossible for these specializations.” (underscoring supplied for emphasis) Undersecretary Mateo further represented that the current number of regular teaching complement cannot address the demands for teachers particularly for the K-12 Senior High School Curriculum. Further, the DepEd is still faced with at least 30,000 vacant teaching positions for filing up. Relevant to the request of DepEd is the Philippine Qualifications Framework which provides that the completion of technical-vocational courses shall merit the conferment of National Certificate II only. Inasmuch as the completion of technical-vocational course(s) shall be considered as appropriate education for SHS positions, thus, requiring at least NC Il as training requirement shall ensure alignment of the QS. On the Trainer Methodology Certification (TMC) requirement, the Commission validated Deped’s representation through a review of the TESDA's Training Regulations Manual. The review revealed that Trainers Methodology Certificate Level | (TMC |) consists of competencies that a Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) trainer and assessor must achieve. Hence, a holder of TMC | is considered to be a qualified and competent TVET Trainer/Technical Trainer, Training Facilitator/Coordinator and Competency Assessor. On the other hand, Trainers Methodology Certificate Level Il (TMC II) consists of competencies a TVET trainer or technical trainer must achieve in performing functions as training designer/developer. Therefore, a holder of TMC Il is considered to be a qualified and competent Curriculum designer, Instructional designer and Training designer/developer.
