An alternative pathway to earning undergraduate and graduate degrees is now closer to becoming a law after it was passed on third and final reading in the Senate on Monday.
Senator Joel Villanueva, who also sponsored the measure and later defended the bill during interpellation, said the intent of the measure “is to allow and empower persons who had to start working immediately, to be able to have their working experiences and prior learnings recognized and given equivalent credits for tertiary education.”
The applicants should also complete secondary education as evidenced by a high school diploma, or a result of the Philippine Educational Placement Test or Alternative Learning System Accreditation and Equivalency Assessment and Certification, stating that the individual concerned is qualified to enter college.
