For schools, Mission and vision communicate and indicate its’ purpose and priorities to
stakeholders. It informs strategy development and develop the measurable goals and
objectives by which to gauge the success of the school's strategy. They make a public
statement about what the school sees as the purpose of education and how students

How is it related to your MA program?

As a student of an MA program, I also have my own mission and vision. I had set my
goals and objectives to learn and finished this program for my personal/professional
development and growth as an individual. These mission and vision of mine always
reminding me my priorities. It helps me analyze possible best steps and focus on my
main goal that I am aiming to achieve in the future.
What do you see that GGC could offer you to achieve your goal?

MA Program in GGC is online. As a Person with disability and a working individual, it is

very comfortable for me in a way such I can attend classes without going to school
physically. The tuition fee is also just right. Though it is costly compared to other
universities GGC’s way of paying tuition is not as strict as others based on my friends’
experiences. It gives you enough and fair time to produce the full payment of your
tuition. Professors are very friendly and considerate. I personally know products of GGC
who really succeed in their fields. It means that GGC is not only an institution that offers
education but a quality education. With their mission and vision as an institution I know I
can achieve my goal in the future through the help of GGC community and professors.

How do you see yourself after you finish your program at GGC?

 After I finished my MA program at GGC, I am still a teacher that grew professionally,

who is teaching Araling Panlipunan to junior high school students with more Mastery
and equipped with knowledge and skills I learned from the MA program. Aside from this
I also want to see myself pursuing the doctoral degree. Though maybe not the year
after I graduated but through the help and guidance of our Lord, I know someday I will
fulfill my future goal to be a doctor in education.
