Teacher Education and Development
Priority Area #16 : Alignment of CHED, PRC, DepEd (including Teacher Education Council) NEW!
We seek to identify the alignment issues and challenges of the agencies implementing teacher education and development.

Lastly, DepEd hires and deploys the BLEPT passers who want to pursue their teaching career in the public school system.
