Ligao Community College (LiComCo) began its three-day Training-Workshop on Curriculum Review and Revision on Wednesday, September 16, at the Conference Room of the Administration Building, LiComCo Campus, Tomolin, Ligao City.
Said activity aims to strengthen the capacity of academic leaders and faculty members to systematically evaluate and enhance the collegeโs academic programs in accordance with applicable Commission on Higher Education (CHED) standards and the institutionโs vision and mission.
Present during the opening day were OIC-College President Dr. Irene B. Racho, College Department Head Dr. Joan C. Alejo, and LGU Consultant Dr. Arnulfo M. Mascariรฑas, together with the faculty members and teaching personnel of the college.
During her welcome message, Dr. Racho emphasized the importance of evaluating, updating, and enhancing the collegeโs curricula to ensure that its academic programs remain responsive to studentsโ evolving needs, aligned with applicable standards, and relevant to real-world demands.
Following this, Dr. Alejo led the orientation and provided an overview of the three-day training-workshop.
The first day featured three sessions led by resource speakers.
Dr. Jordan M. Pocaan, Director of the Institute of Lifelong Learning of Sorsogon State University and a member of the CHED Regional Quality Assessment Team for Teacher Education, discussed the Revised Philippine Qualifications for Higher Education and CHED Standards and Outcomes-Based Curriculum Development.
Prof. Ilona M. Matias, Instructor 3 at Bicol University and Project Leader of the Socio-Economic Research and Data Analytics Center, facilitated the session on Curriculum Mapping, Alignment, and Gap Analysis.
Following the sessions, participants were divided into two groups based on their academic programs, Education and Economics, for a breakout session. The groups reviewed and analyzed their existing curricula and discussed the corresponding syllabi based on the concepts presented during the sessions.
Afterward, each group presented a sample of its accomplished syllabus for evaluation and discussion, allowing the participants to demonstrate their understanding of the topics covered during the first day.
The activity concluded with the awarding of certificate to the resource speaker, followed by reminders and instructions from Dr. Alejo for the succeeding sessions.
The three-day training-workshop, scheduled from September 16 to 18, forms part of LiComCoโs efforts to strengthen curriculum development, align academic programs with higher education standards, and support continuing academic quality assurance.
