Journal Title: Journal of Education and Literature - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
Every higher education institution aims to deliver quality instruction, student services, research outputs and community extension programs to its customers and clients. It serves as a marketing tool especially for private institutions to promote their image as universities with high standards of education that would be able to compete with foreign universities while maintaining international climate from its home country. This article reviewed the studies and literature pertaining to some initiatives and practices of Philippine Tertiary Education. Institutional vision of the Philippine Higher Education Institutions clearly reflects their aspiration of moving towards internationalization through its graduates and accreditation initiatives. The university trifold function must be sustained with highly qualified and dedicated human resources who will support the activities of the school management in delivering the strategic plans and attaining the specific objectives of internationalization. Government plays a significant role in supporting the initiatives of HEIs in terms of educational programs and projects for student and faculty mobility as well as quality assurance in accordance with the ASEAN Integration which assist the local academic institutions in reaching the goal of globalization.
