Radio Based Instruction

The Radio-Based Instruction (RBI) Program is an alternative learning delivery mode using radio broadcast to deliver the ALS programs. As a form of distance learning, it is able to expand access to education by bringing it to where the learners are. It aims to provide learning opportunities to listeners and enable them to acquire equivalency in basic education through the broadcast of lessons.Radio-Based Instruction

Accreditation and Equivalency (A&E) Program

The Accreditation and Equivalency (A&E) Program is a program aimed at providing an alternative pathway of learning for out-of-school children, youth and adults who are basically literate but who have not completed the 10 years of basic education mandated by the Philippine Constitution.

Through this program, school dropouts are able to complete elementary and high school education outside the formal school system.

Accreditation and Equivalency (A&E) Program

TheExpanded Tertiary Education Equivalency and Accreditation Program (ETEEAP) is an alternative education program in the Philippines that allows working professionals who were not able to finish their college education or were completely unable to step into college to earn a bachelors degree without going through traditional schooling methods.

Expanded Tertiary Education Equivalency and Accreditation Program (ETEEAP)

Under this program, professionals with five or more years of working experience can use the knowledge, experiences, and achievements they obtained through their jobs to earn school credits that are then deducted from the total number of units that they are required to earn before they graduate. This way, the more professional experience the ETEEAP student demonstrates, the sooner he or she can earn his or her bachelors degree

ETEAAP

ETEEAP operates by virtue of Executive Order Number 330 signed by former President Fidel V. Ramos on May 10, 1996. It is currently administered by the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) and colleges or universities that wish to offer it as part of their academic programs must gain CHEDs approval first.

Legitimacy of the Program

Differences Between ETEEAP and Traditional Schooling

Students aiming for a bachelors degree through the traditional method usually complete their college education in four or five years time, depending on the curriculum and the number of units they complete per term.

Basic concept is the same. The more units you can complete at a given time, the faster youre going to graduate; however, compared with traditional schooling where you can, at most, graduate several months in advance if you were able to take up and complete more units than the regular school curriculum imposes.ETTEAP

ETEEAP allows professionals to complete their degree in about a year or so by having their professional experiences evaluated and used in exchange for academic credits.

Also, most of the colleges and universities that implement ETEEAP also offer the program online, so anyone can take the course from anywhere in the world as long as they have a computer and access to the internet

Evaluation of the applicants professional experiences rests on the school implementing the program. Among those usually taken into consideration are years of working experience, job responsibilities, job position, seminars and trainings attended, projects headed or undertaken, and achievements or citations received throughout the course of the applicants employment.Each of these factors carry different weight, and when combined together, corresponds to a certain number of units that the applicant automatically earns.

Evaluation of Professional Experiences

The entrance exams will determine how many subjects the applicant is going to take so applicants are advised to take them seriously. If you do well, your academic load will be lessened, but if you didnt, you may have to take the full load or some supplementary classes.

Entrance Examinations

ETEEAP courses are comparatively more expensive than traditional college courses. Aside from the tuition fee, applicants also pay other miscellaneous fees including a work visit fee which is used to cover the expenses of the assessor that will be sent to your workplace to take a look at your work environment and discuss your work with your boss.

you would normally study in four to five years will be tackled in about a year, so the lessons are very fast-paced and straightforward. project studies or theses are done individually as opposed to traditional schooling where they can be done in groups.

As for students studying overseas, classes are usually done through e-mail exchanges, instant messaging (YM, FB Chat, Google Chat), and video calls (YM, Skype) while project studies are sometimes submitted through courier.
