4. Recognition of TNE qualifications
• In the Philippines, recognition of TNE qualifications is
specified in CHED Memorandum Order No. 2, Series
of 2008 or the Policies, Standard and Guidelines on
Transnational Education.
CHED’s Memorandum Order 2, Series of 2005
stipulates:
• “Only foreign higher education providers (FHEP) recognised by
their respective governments as quality higher education
providers and accredited by a recognised accrediting body in
the country of origin or its equivalent may be given
government authority to offer undergraduate, graduate and
post-graduate degrees. Provided that the FHEP has or shall
have a twinning arrangement (as defined in CHED policies and
guidelines in linkages and twinning programmes) with an
accredited Philippine HEI.”
• Figure 12 compares the recognition of TNE
qualifications across selected ASEAN countries in the
following areas: (i) TNE guidelines and code of
practice; (ii) recognition of TNE qualifications; and
(iii) acceptance of international degrees and active
engagement with international bodies to improve
recognition procedures.
• Beginning 2018, Filipinos will have the opportunity to
access UK degrees in the country and gain global
qualifications through postgraduate programmes
offered by Philippine institutions in partnership with
UK universities
• a collaboration between the British Council and the
Commission on Higher Education (CHED), aims to upgrade the
quality of Philippine higher education by introducing
transnational education (TNE) programmes—defined as
educational courses provided by institutions in one country to
students in another—on subject areas considered national
priorities but remain unavailable locally such as food security
and disaster risk reduction management.
