hat is the role of CHED in promot
quality education?

The role of the Commission on Higher

Education (CHED) in promoting this
quality education is embodied in its legal
mandate.
-HEIs must be monitored, evaluated, and
regulated to ensure that their educational
services meet certain standards in relation to
the global and national development goals. In
the Philippines, the government agency
mandated to oversee those tasks is the
Commission on Higher Education (CHED).

-To be fair in evaluating the performance of an

agency, it is of paramount importance that the
evaluation is entrenched to the main purpose
why the agency was created in the first place.
What is Quality of Education?

In the context of the Philippines, CHED defined

quality of education in its CMO No. 46, series of
2012, otherwise known as the “Policy Standard
to Enhance Quality Assurance in Philippine
Higher Education through an Outcomes-based
and Typology-based Quality Assurance” as a
fitness for purpose, as evidenced by excellence
or distinction, and as a concept that is
transformative in nature.

What is the goal?
“The fundamental purpose of higher
education, therefore, is not only to develop
graduates in a particular field, but also well-
rounded individuals who appreciate
knowledge in a general sense, are open-
minded because of it, secure in their
identities as individuals and as Filipinos,

courses, namely Philippine History,

Society, and Ethics. Included also are

In the new curriculum?
CHED rationalized the memorandum
content by stating that Filipino subjects
are not uniquely displaced, as other
courses such as General Psychology
and Basic Microeconomics will also be
transferred to the junior and senior high
school in pursuit of reducing the GE
courses into 36 units.
In reply to the protests by Filipino
professors and civil groups, CHED
pointed out that they did not deny the
capacity of Filipino to be used in
intellectual discourses. In the
memorandum, it is stated that the new
GEC may be taught in Filipino and
English, leaving the choice of medium

FEATURES OF
CMO NO. 62
Policies, Standards and Guidelines
(PSGs) for Transnational Education
(TNE) Programs
 Key Ideas
■CHED is guided by the principles adopted by the
UNESCO/ Council of Europe in the Code of Good
Practice in the Provision of Transnational
Education (2001).

■CHED promotes Open and Distance Learning

(ODL) through Tertiary Education (RA 10650).

■ Open and Distance Learning “ODL”- refers To the merger of

geographical location, physical and time constraints and
economic situation.
■ Open Educational Resources “OER”- are any type of
educational materials that are in public domain or introduced
with an open license. The nature of these open materials
means that anyone can legally and freely copy, use, adapt
and reshare them. OERs include textbooks, curricula, lecture
notes, assignments, tests, projects, audio and video and
animation.
■ Transnational Education “TNE”- is a higher education
delivered in a country other than the one where an awarding
institution is based. Categories of TNE programs are outlined
