Expanded Tertiary Education Equivalency and Accreditation Program (ETEEAP)
The ETEEAP is an educational assessment program of the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) which gives credit to an individual’s job tenure. Professionals who have not been able to finish the tertiary level but have been employed for at least five (5) years may be able to obtain a Bachelor’s Degree relevant to their existing careers.
Through an assessment and evaluation of the applicant’s acquired knowledge, skills, attitude and values from their work experience, deputized Higher Education Institution —Our Lady of Fatima University— will give equivalent academic credits and certifications which can be deducted from the required number of units needed so as to graduate. This initiative provides ETEEAP students a shorter time frame in earning a college degree compared to the conventional learning system.
Being one of the deputized Higher Education Institutions, the Our Lady of Fatima University’s College of Business and Accountancy and College of Hospitality and Institutional Management offer ETEEAP at the Valenzuela Campus.
