In the Philippines, the Commission on Higher Education (CHED)


has similarly recognized the need for internationalization as it gears up
to support significant researches on this innovation considering the
thousands of HEIs comprising both state and private institutions. CHED's
mandates include enhancement of institutional quality assurance and
directs all HEIs to institute the necessary mechanisms that ensure
graduates can competently cope with the standards of a rapidly
changing globalized world and be mindful of global competitiveness

(CMO 46, s. 2012, art. 1, sec. 2). The internationalization of higher
education is not only an internal requirement in the country, it is also
seen as a strong component for economic development.

There is a dearth of studies conducted on the


internationalization processes in the Philippines especially in the HEIs in
the Caraga Region. The value of this study lies primarily on assessing
what potential of the observed motives and processes in the involved
HEIs' internationalization activities can offer in higher education. An in-
depth understanding of internationalization is essential for management
to sustain the internationalization effort. Findings of this study may
provide the HEIs' decision makers valuable information about their
respective internationalization processes to guide their strategic
planning.
