Central Luzon State University (CLSU), through the Quality Assurance Office (QAO), conducted the Capacity Development Workshop for the Technical Working Group (TWG), College and Department QA Coordinators, Department Chairs, and Program Coordinators for Accrediting Agency of Chartered Colleges and Universities in the Philippines (AACCUP) Program Accreditation on June 4, 2026, at Undan Hall, Philippine-Sino Center for Agricultural Technology (PhilSCAT).
The workshop gathered university personnel involved in quality assurance and accreditation to enhance institutional readiness for upcoming AACCUP accreditation activities. The activity focused on the identification, consolidation, organization, and management of university, college, and program-level evidence required under the AACCUP Master Survey Instrument for Levels I and II accreditation.
The program opened with the singing of the Philippine National Anthem and a prayer, followed by welcome remarks from Dr. Rhodora I. Dela Rosa, Director of the Quality Assurance Office. She emphasized the importance of collaboration and shared responsibility in sustaining the University's commitment to quality assurance and continuous improvement.
Mr. Junior M. Pacol, Chief of the Program Quality Assurance Division, presented the workshop rationale and objectives. He highlighted the initiative's goal of establishing a centralized, accessible repository of accreditation evidence to support current and future accreditation activities and to improve efficiency across colleges and departments.
Dr. Lorenz J. Fajardo, Chief of the Institutional Quality Assurance Division, facilitated the workshop proper. Participants reviewed accreditation requirements, identified documentary evidence, and discussed strategies for organizing and maintaining evidence repositories aligned with AACCUP standards.
During the afternoon session, representatives from the ten areas presented their outputs, updates, and recommendations. These presentations encouraged the sharing of best practices, identification of gaps, and alignment of efforts toward accreditation readiness.
The workshop concluded with closing remarks from Dr. Joan C. Ravago, Chief of the Quality Management Systems Division, who commended the participants for their active participation and commitment to quality assurance.
Through this initiative, CLSU further strengthened its quality assurance mechanisms and reinforced its commitment to academic excellence, continuous improvement, and successful accreditation outcomes.
