Upcoming INNOTECH Flexible Learning Programs for Teachers and School Heads
Teachers and School Heads need to continuously improve their capacities and skills to adapt to the current education landscape. INNOTECH believes that by preparing and capacitating teachers and school heads, we can provide a better future for every learner.
On 30 September 2021, INNOTECH will offer 8 of its courses through partnerships with the Regional Offices of the Philippine Department of Education (DepEd). Teachers and School Heads who will not be part of the regional implementations may also enroll on their own accord by pre-registering through the links provided below. The courses offered are accredited by the National Educators Academy of the Philippines (NEAP) and by the Professional Regulation Commission (PRC). Most of the courses also have equivalent academic units in the Graduate Program of our partner universities and colleges. Check out these courses below.
