15. PROBLEMS AND ISSUES
1. Lack of
overall
Vision,
Frame -
work, Plan
for Higher
Education
There is indeed a large
proportion of mismatch
between training in schools
and actual jobs. This is the
major problem at the
tertiary level and it is also
the cause of the existence of
a large group of educated
unemployed or
underemployed.
16. According to the labor sector, the skills needed by
the industry but not adequately provided by the
academe are the following: Communication skills,
Technical skills, and Numerical skills.
According to studies undertaken by CHED, the
following programs have been considered over -
subscribed as evidenced by the huge enrolment
recorded: Business Administration, Nursing,
Teacher Education, Information Technology, and
Hotel and Restaurant Management.
While the undersubscribed programs are:
Science and Technology, and Agriculture and
Fisheries

Higher

licensure exams across
all disciplines from

Among the 1,792 HEIs (excluding SUC
campuses), only 100 or 5.6 % HEIs can be
assumed to have adequate facilities.

decline in our country’s global
competitiveness.
