 THE PHILIPPINE QUALIFICATIONS
FRAMEWORK (PQF)

As part of the ASEAN convergence and in the light of

globalization each country in the ASEAN, the Philippines
adopts national standards and levels for outcomes in education
called the
Philippine Qualifications Framework (PQF)
which is provided by law (RA 10968, s. 2018).
 THE PHILIPPINE QUALIFICATIONS
FRAMEWORK (PQF)
The Philippine Professional Standards for Teachers defines teacher
quality in the Philippines. The standards describe the expectations of
teachers’ increasing levels of knowledge, practice and professional
engagement. At the same time, the standards allow for teachers’
growing understanding, applied with increasing sophistication across a
broader and more complex range of teaching/learning situations.
