training hours for the NSTP 1. Moreover, the Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) have the prerogative to
maximize the 90 training hours by introducing the optional modules for 36 hours which are also aligned
and consistent with requirements of the law. At this phase, students are being exposed and prepared to the
real community scenario.
During the NSTP 1 phase, the students are expected to gain knowledge, skills and attitude towards
deepened understanding and heightened appreciation of their role in the promotion of common good and
the general welfare. Further, they are expected to demonstrate learning by applying concepts and principles
on practical situations in pursuit of community development for the task of nation building.

which shall be taken after completing the common modules phase. The CWTS is the program component
or activities contributory to the general welfare and the betterment of life for the members of the
community or the enhancement of its facilities, especially those devoted to improving health, education,
environment, entrepreneurship, safety, recreation, moral of the citizenry and other social welfare services.

are intended to.
In this phase, students are being introduced to the community-based activities as preparation of
their involvement to the National Service Reserve Corps (NSRC) which they will be part of when they
completed NSTP. The National Service Training Corps (NSRC) is an organization composed of graduates
of the CWTS and LTS components tasked to provide a trained, motivated, and organized manpower
reserve that can be tapped by the State for DRRM, civic welfare, literacy, national emergency, environment
protection and other similar endeavors in the service of the nation.
The number of hours is defined according to the scope and depth of the topics. Completing the
common and specific module phases will satisfy the 54 minimum training hours for NSTP 1.

school and at home directed towards the development of a strong moral fiber that will contribute to his /her
personal well-being as well as that of the members of the society.
ISPSC continues to enhance their curriculum in
training the students to become more responsible
citizens who could greatly contribute to the general
welfare of the country. It utilizes the students’ talents
and technical expertise in assisting the community’s To discuss the history of the establishment of NSTP
development. The program is constantly changing and To explain the significance of the
adjusting to the needs of the students and the NSTP
community. Tocreateawarenessonthe importance of the program
It is clearly asserts that the 1935 Constitution
of the Philippines which the prime duty of the state is to
safeguard the common welfare of its citizens. “The
welfare of the people is the primordial reason for the
existence of a state hence; government service is a public trust, the so-called distributive justice”. On the
other hand, every citizen has the duty to fulfill his/her responsibility in the achievement of progress and
development through his/her cooperation and active participation in the affairs and activities of the state –
to serve the state in times of emergency as stated in the constitution (the so-called legal justice).
As a preparation for this noble responsibility, the 1935 Constitution require male and female
students to take Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) aimed to train, discipline and prepare them
responsive citizens. In the 1987 Constitution however, ROTC for female students was voluntary.
The smooth implementation of ROTC was disrupted by questions arising from moral degradation
and unscrupulous practices by people charge to supervise and implement the subject. In the late 1990’s the
problem of ROTC’s relevance regarding its objective and purpose was evident. Corruption, exploitation,
and devious practices were rampant until its constitutionality was put to a test or question. This paved the
way to the enactment of the Republic Act 9163 otherwise known as the National Service Training
Program (NSTP) Act of 2001.
Recognizing the youth’s significant role in the task of nation-building, the state shall promote
civic consciousness among them and shall develop their physical, moral, spiritual, intellectual and social
well-being. It shall inculcate the values of patriotism, nationalism, and advance their involvement in
public and civic affairs.

female of any baccalaureate degree course or at least two (2) years technical-vocational courses in public
and private educational institutions are required to complete one (1) of the NSTP components as requisite

program, students are given the freedom to choose from among the three (3) program components of the
National Service Training Program namely: a) Reserved Officers’ Training Corps b) Literacy Training
Services, and c) Civic Welfare Training Services.
Reserved Officers’ Training Corps (ROTC) which provides military training to tertiary level
students in order to motivate, train, organize and mobilize them for national defense preparedness. It aims
to instill patriotism, moral virtues, respect for rights of civilians, and adherence to the Constitution, among
others. Literacy Training Service (LTS) which is designed to train students and to become mentors of
literacy and numeracy skills to school children, out-of-school youth, and other segment of the society in
need of their service. Civic Welfare Training Service (CWTS) which promotes activities contributory to
the general welfare and betterment of life for the members of the community or the enhancement of its

A country is run by the government, judicial bodies, its people, and most importantly by the
Constitution. The constitution serves as the backbone of the country. Without it, the Law and Jurisdiction
will not hold up and fall apart in no time, but they are meant to stand strong. The constitution is the
embodiment of fundamental regulations and principles according to which the country, state, and its people
are supposed to work.
Constitution is the basic principles and laws of a nation, state, or social group that determine the
powers and duties of the government and guarantee certain rights to the people in it. It is a written
instrument embodying the rules of a political or social organization. (Merriam Webster Dictionary)
A constitution serves as the fundamental law
of land of the land. It is a character that creates a
government and speaks for the entire people from whom
it derives its claim to obedience. It establishes the basic
framework and underlying principles of government. It
refers to the “body of rules and principles in
accordance with which powers of sovereignty are 1 T expla t
regularly exercised.” (de Leon, 2005) importance/ o h

“You have the right to remain silent. Anything you can say and will be used against you in a court
of law. You have the right to an attorney. If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be provided for you. Do
you understand the rights I have just read to you? With these rights in mind, do you wish to speak to me?”
