FOREWORD
The 2008 Philippine Standard Classification of Education (PSCEd) is the third inter-
agency collaboration between and among partners in the Philippine Statistical
System (PSS) geared towards the improvement of the education sector. The first
standard classification ever developed in the Philippines was published in 1994,
while an updated PSCEd was disseminated to users in 1997.
The PSCEd was developed to facilitate the compilation of the country’s education
statistics as basis for educational planning, manpower training, labor market studies
and other related activities. Patterned after the International Standard Classification
of Education (ISCEd) produced by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and
Cultural Organization (UNESCO), the PSCEd provides for national and international
comparability of education statistics.
The preparation of PSCEd has been made possible with the gargantuan tasks
accomplished by the Technical Working Group on Education Classification
(TWGEC) under the Technical Committee on Statistical Standards and
Classifications (TCSSC). Likewise, we wish to express our deep appreciation for the
support and cooperation extended by experts from Higher Education Institutions
(HEIs) who unselfishly shared their knowledge and experience during the
consultation meeting held to review educational programs and courses.
The PSCEd has been revised to take into account the requirements of the three key
players in the education sector - the Department of Education (DepEd), Commission
on Higher Education (CHED), and the Technical Education and Skills Development
Authority (TESDA).

Chairman, National Statistical Coordination Board
MEMORANDUM CIRCULAR NO. ________
Pursuant to NSCB Resolution No. 8, Series of 2008 approved on the 10th day
of September 2008 entitled, “Approving and Adopting the 2008 Philippine Standard
Classification of Education (PSCEd)”, the following guidelines are hereby issued:
For purposes of the 2008 PSCEd, the following selected terms shall be
adopted:
Special Needs Education - the education of children and youth with special
needs corresponding to elementary and secondary education that require
modifications of school practices, curricula, programs, special services and
facilities. These include children and youth who are gifted/talented, fast
learners and those with disabilities.
3. Rules in Classification
The 2008 PSCEd publication is divided into three parts. Part I contains the
definition/description of educational levels, broad groups, fields and programs.
Part II contains the coding scheme used for the different educational levels,
broad groups, fields, programs and courses. Presented under this section is the
list of educational courses and their corresponding codes - classified according to
levels, broad groups, fields and programs. Part III contains the alphabetic index.
For purposes of classifying and/or gathering data on the educational
attainment of the population, the following rules shall be followed:
For enrollees/graduates of more than one course, the following rules shall be
adopted:
If the degrees are of the same level, the course which the individual is
actually practicing or is engaged in should be the one to be reported.
On the other hand, if the individual practices both courses (which are
of the same level) at the same time, the course where he/she spends
more time should be the one to be reported.
This memorandum circular shall take effect immediately. Henceforth, all other
education classification systems adopted by concerned agencies are deemed
superseded.

2008 PHILIPPINE STANDARD CLASSIFICATION OF
EDUCATION (PSCED)
I. BACKGROUND
The PSCEd has been patterned after the International Standard Classification of
Education (ISCEd) produced by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and
Cultural Organization (UNESCO) for the purpose of assembling, compiling, and
presenting education statistics, both nationally and internationally.
In view of the many changes that have taken place in the educational systems
since the 1997 ISCEd revision, there is a growing clamor to address various
problems in terms of implementation and other concerns.
Revision of coding scheme adopted for the different levels and fields of
education;
Development of a correspondence table to indicate the old codes of
educational programs and courses used in the 1997 PSCEd;
Presentation of the final draft 2008 PSCEd for approval of the NSCB
Executive Board;

The coding scheme of the 2008 PSCEd is similar to that of the 1997 ISCEd, with
the 1-digit code representing the level, the 2-digit code representing the broad
group, the 3-digit code representing the field, and the 5-digit code representing
the program. The Philippine education classification system conforms to
international standard (i.e.,1997 ISCEd), and is comparable across countries up to
5-digit code (program) only. The 2008 PSCEd coding system, however, has been
extended to 7-digit code representing the particular course.
5 7 2 1 2 0 1
The first digit (5) represents the level, First Stage of Tertiary/Baccalaureate
Education. The first two digits (57) represent the broad group, Health and
Welfare. The first digit (5) and the next two digits (72) taken together, represent
the subject-matter field (572), Health Programs. The first three digits (572) and
the next two digits (12) taken together, represent the program (57212), a
selection of one or more courses under the Programs in Nursing. The first five
digits (57212) and the last two digits (01) altogether, represent the particular
course (5721201), Bachelor of Science in Nursing.
