educational assessment scheme that recognizes
knowledge, skills, and prior learning obtained by
individuals from non-formal and informal education
experiences. By establishing equivalency competence
standards and a comprehensive assessment system
employing written test, interview, skills demonstration
and other creative assessment methodologies, higher
education institutions may administer competencybased evaluation. A Panel of Assessors is convened to
determine the candidate’s knowledge, skills and
attitudes relevant to a particular discipline, and the
administering higher education institution awards
appropriate equivalency credit or academic degree to
successful candidate
The mandate to implement the Program is
embodied in Executive Order 330 issued by President
Fidel V. Ramos on May 10, 1996 as an offshoot of the
recommendation of the First Employment Summit in
September 1995.
