Commission on Higher Education (CHED)

The Commission on Higher Education (CHED) is the Philippine government agency responsible for promoting quality and relevant higher education. It oversees academic standards, accreditation, and policy implementation across universities and colleges. CHED collaborates with other government bodies, such as the Department of Tourism (DOT) and TIEZA, to align education programs with national development goals, particularly in tourism and infrastructure. It also manages student scholarship and enrollment processes, requiring applicants to submit documents through their respective schools by specified deadlines.
