The BTVTEd program is an undergraduate teacher education program that equips learners with adequate and relevant competencies in teaching specific area in Industrial Arts or Home Economics or ICT or Agri-Fishery-Arts – the four areas of technical and vocational track in the K to 12 Curriculum. Its main concern is the preparation of teachers in Technology in Livelihood Education (TLE) for grades 9-10, senior high school for the Technical-Vocational Livelihood (TVL) track, Technical-Vocational Education and Training (TVET), and for higher education institutions offering BTVTEd and other allied programs.

This group of teachers is equipped not only with strong theoretical understanding of teaching and technology, but also with practical exposure in industry which can be well – tested and validated in various aspects and components of the Teaching Internship program and Supervised Industrial Training which is part of the curriculum. Consistent with the policies, standards and guidelines set by Commission on Higher Education (CHED), Isabela State University- Angadanan Campus and collaborating public schools and Host Training Establishment are at the forefront of providing quality pre- service teachers and Student Interns.

                   *Note: No LET examinees in the year 2020 and March 2021

In September 2016, eighteen (18) examinees of the 1st batch of BTTE graduates took the licensure exam, and nine (9) of them passed, resulting in a 50% passing rate. This was higher than the national passing rate of 33.78%. The following year, only three (3) out of ten (10) examinees passed, resulting in a 30% passing rate, which was lower than the national passing rate of 46.37%. However, the program’s performance improved in the succeeding exams.

In September 2018, eleven (11) examinees took the exam, and six (6) passed, resulting in a 54.44% passing rate, which was higher than the national passing rate of 48.03%. March 2019 marked the highest performance of the program so far, in which one (1) examinee took the licensure exam and passed, resulting in a 100% passing rate, which was way higher than the national passing rate of 25.95%. In September 2019, four (4) out of fifteen (15) examinees passed, resulting in a 26.66% passing rate, which was still lower than the national passing rate of 39.68%. In September 2021, one (1) examinee took the licensure exam and passed, resulting in a 100% passing rate, which was higher than the national passing rate of 57.76%, matching the March 2019 performance.

In the most recent licensure exam in October 2022, thirty-six (36) examinees took the exam, and twenty-six (26) of them passed, resulting in a 72.22% passing rate, which was higher than the national passing rate of 50.94%. And in March 2023, eight (8) examinees of the first batch of BTVTED graduates took the exam, and seven (7) of them passed, resulting in an 87.5% passing rate, which was higher than the national passing rate of 46.95%. In summary, September 2016, September 2018, March 2019, September 2021, October 2022, and March 2023 mark as remarkable date of examinations for the program that surpass the national passing rates.  These results indicate that the program is continuously improving and producing competent graduates who are well-prepared for their future careers.

The Bachelor of Technical-Vocational Teacher Education (BTVTED) program is not only designed to prepare students for a career in technical and vocational education but also to help them pass the National Certification (NC). The NC II certification is a nationally recognized qualification that certifies an individual’s competency in a specific technical-vocational field.

The BTVTED program has produced graduates who passed the NC II examination in different competencies in Food and Service Management such as Bread and Pastry Production, Cookery/Commercial Cooking, Food Processing, and Food and Beverage Services while Automotive Technology also produces Automotive Servicing NCII, Automotive Body Repair NC II, Automotive Body Painting NCII, Shielded Metal Arc Welding NC II and Basic Driving NC II. The NC II passers are proof that the program has equipped its graduates with the competencies required by the Philippine TVET Trainers-Assessors Qualifications Framework (PTQF).

The program’s emphasis on teaching process skills, including curriculum development, lesson planning, materials development, educational assessment, and teaching approaches, has helped graduates prepare for the NC II examination. Through the program’s focus on reflective practice, graduates are able to constantly improve their teaching knowledge, skills, and practices, which are essential to passing the National Certification. The BTVTED program’s success in producing NC II passers is a testament to the quality of education it provides.
