SEAMEO INNOTECH and Capitol University team up for Joint Graduate Diploma

SEAMEO INNOTECH and Capitol University established their partnership through a ceremonial signing of the Memorandum of Agreement, 16 October 2018. The partnership will foster the development of teachers’ capacities through a Joint Graduate Diploma Program. 

Through this Joint Graduate Diploma, school heads and teachers who are enrolled in Capitol University’s Master’s Degree program may earn academic units by completing selected INNOTECH flexible courses. This program also gives the learners an alternative way, and a more flexible arrangement, in attaining their Master’s Degree.  

The MOA signing with Capitol University was held along with the Revalida and Graduation Ceremony of the 800 public school teachers in Region X. These teachers have successfully completed their flexible courses—TEACHeXCELS (Teaching and Learning Excellence in School Leadership for Southeast Asia) and GURO 21 (Gearing Up for Responsible and Outstanding Teachers for the 21st Century).  

The Agreement was signed by Mr. Juan Robertino “Robbie” Macalde, Senior Specialist of the Flexible Learning Solutions Unit of SEAMEO INNOTECH, and by Dr. Amor Q. De Torres, Vice President for Academic Affairs of Capitol University. Signing as witnesses were Dr. Arturo Bayocot, Regional Director of the Department of Education Region X, and the Division Superintendents of Region X.
