Partido State University (ParSU) continues to take active steps in advancing faculty and staff development as it participated in the regional meeting on the Revised Guidelines on the Application as Delivering Higher Education Institutions (DHEIs) for the Commission on Higher Education's (CHED) Scholarships for Instructors' Knowledge Advancement Program (SIKAP) yesterday, June 11, 2025, at the AVP Function Hall, Legazpi City.ย
The activity convened representatives from Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) across the Bicol Region to discuss enhanced protocols for DHEI qualification, responsibilities, and documentary requirements under the CHED-SIKAP Grant.
ParSU is one of only nine HEIs in the Bicol Region qualified to offer graduate programs under the SIKAP initiative. The other recognized institutions include Ateneo de Naga University, Bicol University, Camarines Norte State College, Camarines Sur Polytechnic Colleges, Central Bicol State University of Agriculture, Catanduanes State University, Sorsogon State University, and Dr. Emilio B. Espinosa Sr. Memorial State College of Agriculture and Technology.
The CHED-SIKAP Grant supports HEI personnel pursuing advanced degrees, particularly addressing the persistent challenge of program accessibility in the region. The meeting provided updates on the application and approval process for eligible HEIs, outlined the submission requirements to the Scholarship Management Officeโincluding documentation for honorariaโand clarified the roles and obligations of designated DHEIs.
Representing ParSU were Dr. Michael A. Clores, Vice President for Academic Affairs (VPAA), Dr. Kennedy C. Cuya, Executive Assistant to the Office of the VPAA, and Mr. Allen A. Valencia, Human Resource Management Officer II.
This participation reaffirms ParSU's role in providing inclusive and equitable access to quality higher education and its support for the professional growth of its academic community.
