specialization through actual researches as part of graduate educational requirements. DHVSU-GS stands

still to its goals of: Quality and Excellence, Relevance and Responsiveness, Access and Equity, AND

Efficiency and Effectiveness

Believing that the human resource is the most important resource in any organization, DHVSU-GS

gives high premium on the holistic development of its teaching force in the areas of instruction, research,

extension, production, internationalization, physical and spiritual, health and safety, AND gender and

development. Thus, the GS Faculty Development Plan was crafted.

The Graduate School Faculty Development Plan is a contextualized and more specific version of

the University’s commitment to its faculty relative to the latter’s holistic development. It contains six
columns for Indicators/Areas, Specific Objectives, Actions, Persons/Office Involved, Resources/Materials,

and Indicators per Cover Period.

I. Well-defined Objectives

The DHVSU-GS ensures that its programs, projects, and activities are anchored on

the objectives of the University translated into the specific objectives of the Program’s

PPAs. The Doctor of Education major in Educational Management has been preparing

educators and district, regional and national-level leaders for multiple decades. With its

challenging and innovative curriculum, taught by outstanding faculty, it prepares Doctor

of Education students to assume central office leadership roles in schools by cultivating

to them the knowledge, skills, and dispositions that help educators navigate the practical

demands of leading effective schools and education systems. Specifically, it aims to:

prepare educational leaders to lead excellent, equitable, and responsive educational

systems; provide intellectual leadership around educational issues for school leaders,

policy makers, politicians, community leaders, and other interested stakeholders;

convene forums for democratic deliberation of educational, social, and economic issues

so as to play an active role in redevelopment efforts in the country while also preparing

students to be agents for change within their own districts or areas; and, support high

caliber collaborative action research that puts innovative solutions to work while

advancing outreach, engagement, and economic development.

In terms of its faculty, DHVSU-GS commits for the holistic development of its

faculty through the provision of meaningful programs along the quadrology functions of

the university, internationalization, physical and spiritual, health and safety, and gender

and development.

II. Adequate and Relevant Projects/Activities to Achieve Objectives

 The DHVSU-GS makes it a point to involve all its faculty in various engagements

be it in the areas of research, extension, production, internationalization, and other

related areas. Aside from scholarship opportunities and attendance to seminars and

trainings here and abroad, faculty are also encouraged to conduct their researches in

their respective lines of expertise, have it presented internationally and published in

highly reputable journals. Their research outputs are then translated and implemented

into extension projects so that communities may benefit from its results.

Aside from the research-extension inter-connecting functions, strong partnership

with the various agencies of the government, civil society groups, non-governmental

organizations, and people’s organizations were forged as part of its “corporate social

responsibility” advocacy. Due to the recognition of the University’s stature and

reputation, the GS served as the host unit for the DELTA (Developing Excellent Leaders

and Teachers Academic Achievement) scholars of the Province of Pampanga. In 2017,

there were 144 public schools teachers (Batch 1) who enjoyed scholarship benefits and

other related fees. While 83 public school teachers (Batch 2) were enrolled in 2018. The

Project KIKO: (Keeping the Innovative Knowledge Outstanding) of Mayor Francis Garcia,

sponsored an initial of 30 scholarship grants for the public school teachers of Bataan.

While Candaba Mayor Rene Maglanque sponsored scholarship privileges for the 75

public school teachers to take Master of Arts in Education major in Educational

Management. The Project KIKO and Maglaque Scholarship Program commenced in

October 2020.

In recognition of the strong need for a broad-based improvement of the

readiness, capabilities and capacities of public service professionals in education to

ensure the attainment of producing competitive graduates at different levels of

 education, innovative engagement is put into fore. Hence, “Cross-Institutional

Complementation for Advanced Program Capacitation” is conceived, a joint academic

venture between DHVSU and Dr. Yanga’s Colleges and a Commission on Higher Education

(CHED) endorsed program.

To provide international opportunities to its faculty and students, DHVSU forget a

number of MOUs and MOAs with various international institutions in the areas of faculty

and student exchanges, research collaborations, fellowships, short term courses, and

language and culture programs.
