VISION

An equivalency and accreditation program that produces globally competent graduates imbued with christian values, discipline, and service to humanity.

MISSION

The NEU ETEEAP is committed to provide assistance to qualified individuals in obtaining their degree through equivalency and accreditation of relevant learning experience gained in their workplace.

OBJECTIVES

The NEU ETEEAP in accordance with its policies, processes and procedures, shall implement accreditation and equivalency of learning from informal and non-formal systems and the world of work, and award relevant academic degrees to qualified individuals.

HISTORY

The ETEEAP (Expanded Tertiary Education Equivalency and Accreditation Program) is a comprehensive educational assessment program at the tertiary level that recognizes, accredits and gives equivalencies to knowledge, skills, attitudes and values gained by individuals from relevant work/experiences.

One of the goals of New Era University is to promote access to non-conventional higher education and basic education programs. In 2007, New Era University applied for a permit to operate the ladderized course and Expanded Tertiary Education Equivalency & Accreditation Program (ETEEAP) programs in coordination with the School of Graduate Studies, Open University, College of Business Administration, College of Arts and Sciences and College of Communication.

The ETEEAP started in 2009 under the Department of Vantage Education Management (VEM) presided by Brother Gabby Malonzo, former VEM Director.

In 2014, the ETEEAP was separated from VEM and was headed by Dr. Lydia Libunao, Dean of the College of Education. She became the first ETEEAP Director until her demise in February 2019. It started with a few enrollees who were interested in pursuing their degree through an alternative means because of a number of reasons, and one of them is the program’s flexibility unlike the regular program which has its own rigid schedule of classes.

Dr. Anita P. Santos took over the directorship in February 2019 with Ms. Arlene T. Sarmiento and Ms. Joy M. Gisete giving assistance and support to the ETEEAP Office. In November 2019, the NEU President and the BOT approved the appointment of the Assistant Director of ETEEAP, Dr. Cristina V. Moreno. Later on, Ms. Catherine Bautista also joined the ETEEAP Unit as a staff member.

The ETEEAP started with just a handful of enrollees who were interested in pursuing their degrees. With the initiative of Dr. Anita P. Santos, ETEEAP advertisement was aired in NET 25 on August 22, 2020. It created more than a hundred inquiries via email and social media. The ETEEAP staff started to address calls and text messages addresses to the ETEEAP Office.

The worldwide pandemic was not a hindrance as the ETEEAP Director gathered her staff and two professors on September 21 and 29 to discuss how assessments can be made to interested applicants brought about by NET 25 ads. An initial interview of the applicants together with a group of assessors/interviewers was organized for the applicants either through online for those outside the country and from the provinces. The possibility of face-to-face interview was also considered for those applicants residing near the school or in the Metro Manila area. The first interview face to face and via online (Zoom and Google meet) was organized and was held on October 9, 2020 at the Apartelle Canteen. The face to face interviews became a regular session every Tuesdays and Fridays from 1:00 PM to 5:00 PM from October 2020 to March 2021. The ETEEAP Director led the panel assessors composed of the former NEU President, deans of different colleges (Education, Accountancy, and Business Administration) and selected professors. They made an initial assessment of ETEEAP applicants who were able to comply with the requirements of ETEEAP. Since there was a continuous increase in the number queries of interested applicants, Director Santos set a goal of 100 enrollees for the Academic year 2021-2022.

With the tightening up of the community quarantine from GCQ to ECQ in the last week of March 2021, the ETEEAP Department continuously held orientation and initial assessment of applicants online. The ETEEAP staffs were assisted by the deans from the College of Education and College of Accountancy, Information Director, selected professors, and the former NEU President. By the end of March, 2021, more than a hundred applicants who were interviewed signified their intention to enroll in the ETEEAP courses.

From 2010 to 2020, the ETEEAP Department had a total of 80 graduates including 14 ministers from the School for Ministers (SOM). On October 26, 2021, the first graduation solely for ETEEAP students was held via online to which 55 were conferred graduates of this program.

In 2021, the ETEEAP Office continued to offer programs under Dr. Cristina V. Moreno, ETEEAP Director and was assisted by Dr. Abrian Joy B. Orencia, the former Assistant Director. Serving as support staffs were Ms. Arlene T. Sarmiento, for Admission and Records Management and Ms. Lailani P. Madlangbayan, for Academic and Administrative matters. Bro. Jonas Sarmiento were the assigned Ministrong Tagasubaybay. From 2021 to 2023, ETEEAP had a total of 377 graduates.

The members of CHED Regional Quality Assurance Team recently visited the University last April 30 2024 to review the records of ETEEAP and speak with key officials. Before this date, the Office meticulously prepared for the recertification of four programs namely: Bachelor of Business Administration majors in Financial Management, Marketing Management, Human Resource Development Management; Bachelor of Secondary Education majors in English and Filipino; Bachelor of Arts in Communication, and Bachelor of Science in Computer Science.

To face this challenges of advancement, the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) recognizes the need to be responsive according to the current needs of the country. Hence, it is essential and important that the country's ICT capability should be continually developed and strengthen to be at par globally." [CMO NO. 53 SERIES OF 2006 – ITE Rationale]

NEU College of Informatics and Computing Studies (CICS) is the response of the University to the above mandate of the Commission. It envisions to produce competent graduates that shall cater the needs of the ICT industry.

In 2001, the program formally opened under the College of Engineering and Technology (CET). Permit and recognition to offer the program was granted by Commission on Higher Education (CHED) after compliance to its policies and requirements.

Years later, the existing curriculum was upgraded to a ladderized (TVET and CHED combination) curriculum and the department applied for the Philippine Association of Colleges and Universities-Commission on Accreditation (PACUCOA) from its Consultancy, Preliminary and Formal level.

With the help and support of the Church Administration and the cooperation of all the faculty members, staff, and students, Level 1 Accreditation was passed and granted at the same time.

In 2014, after having complied with the regulatory requirements of PACUCOA and CHED, the need to separate the program to CET came. Thereafter was the birth of the College of Computer Studies (CICS).

Today, the CICS offers wide array of computer-related programs, to with: Bachelor of Science in Computer Science, Bachelor of Science in Entertainment and Multimedia Computing (Specialization: Game Development & Animation Technology), Bachelor of Science in Information Systems, and Bachelor of Library and Information Science.

HISTORY AND PROFILE

Inception

The College of Agriculture was initially proposed by the late Executive Minister Brother ERANO G. MANALO. The college was envisioned to combat hunger and poverty and ensure food security. Initially, the proposed site for the college was the expansive INC Resettlement Area in Maligaya, Laur, Nueva Ecija. However, due to the area's remoteness and lack of viable irrigation caused by the destruction of the watershed, this plan did not fully materialize.

In 2017, in response to the escalating poverty and hunger in the country, the current Executive Minister, Brother EDUARDO V. MANALO, continued to pursue the vision of establishing the College of Agriculture.

Preparations

Preparations for establishing the College began with benchmarking. The colleges of agriculture of selected state universities and colleges were visited for a tour of the facilities and to seek advice and insights from their respective Deans.

Two potential sites for the College were considered: the 25-hectare Church Eco-Farm in Malainen Luma, Naic, Cavite, and the 50-hectare Church property in Bgy. Pinugay, Baras, Rizal. The decision to build the College in Baras was due to the following reasons: proximity to the Church Central Office in Diliman, accessibility, and the rapidly developing communities adjacent to the Pinugay property, particularly the NHA Resettlement Projects, in Baras, Rizal.

Implementation

Groundbreaking: The groundbreaking ceremony for the future College of Agriculture Building was held on 30 July 2017, led by the Church Executive Minister, Bro. Eduardo V. Manalo, following the dedication of the Pinugay House of Worship.

Construction of the Temporary College of Agriculture Buildings

In March 2018, three (3) temporary buildings were constructed for the College of Agriculture: Building No. 1 houses two (2) classrooms and the library; Building No. 2 has one (1) classroom and the Science Laboratory; and Building 3 houses the Administration Office of the NEU Rizal Branch. Building No. 4, a bunkhouse, was later constructed for faculty members from Los Banos.

Site Visitation and Awarding of Government "Permit to Operate"

The CHED Region IV Regional Quality Assurance Team (RQAT) visited the site of the College of Agriculture and examined the required documents on 19 January 2018. On 3 July 2018, a few months after the construction of the temporary buildings for the College, CHED Region IV-A RQAT Supervisor, Mrs. Renifer Francisco, conducted an on-site visit of the temporary buildings and visited the College Main Building under construction.

On 14 September 2018, CHED granted the Government "Permit to Operate" for the first-year level of the BSA (Bachelor of Science in Agriculture) Program of the College.

THE COLLEGE SEAL

The scale represents justice, impartiality, and equity which are enshrined in the study of law as well as its practice.

The 3 stars and the sun embody our ideals and goals in service to our nation and countrymen, which is also a reflection of the College of Law's vision to become an institution of legal education firmly embedded in the unique Christian culture of excellence, discipline and service to humanity.

The pillar is intentionally put in the middle, with a symbolic meaning of Godliness, encompassing the philosophy of the New Era University that "Godliness is the foundation of knowledge", further represented by the book atop the pillar.

The shield that embraces all the elements therein represents our promise; the promise to protect those who are weak against those who are strong; to defend the oppressed against tyrants; and to shield the innocent against those who are unjust. Inspired also by Proverbs 31:8-9 (GNT) which stated "Speak up for people who cannot speak for themselves. Protect the rights of all who are helpless. Speak for them and be a righteous judge.

HISTORY AND PROFILE

The New Era University College of Engineering and Architecture (CEA) traces its roots to 1978 with the establishment of the Institute of Engineering and Technology at the Evangelical College Building in Diliman, Quezon City. From its humble beginnings offering a Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering (BSCE) to a handful of students mostly composed of church members, the program steadily grew in prominence over the years. Over the next decade, the institute introduced Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering (BSME) and Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering (BSEE). Engr. Antonio Luna was tapped to serve as its first dean and was promptly tasked to guide the initial structure and workings of the programs.

In 1984, the construction of a four-storey building was initially built to house the students in the new E.G. Manalo Ave. Subdivision, Diliman, Quezon City and brought forth a change in leadership for the institute. A few months after this, the transfer to an initial campus as a fully functioning educational institution spearheaded by Bro. Eraño G. Manalo who oversaw the rapid expansion of the institution's programs and base.

From 1985 to 1993, a short but remarkable journey for the institute. Engr. Peter G. Lagunbay Jr. served as Dean, fostering a close-knit group of faculty members and instilling a strong family atmosphere upon the students in a newly-built institute.

The institute earned its name during the term of Bro. Eduardo V. Reyes as dean whose term covered the period 1993-1996 which featured drastic changes that advanced student learning and upgraded the testing facilities.

The Institute has consistently demonstrated excellence in licensure examinations, producing several board topnotchers over the years. It achieved 5th place in the April 1985 licensure examination, followed by 4th place in 1986. The Civil Engineering training program also secured 5th place in the 1988 civil service exam and consistently surpassed the national passing rate until November 1994 board exam.

Further highlighting its academic strength, the ECE program earned 2nd place in November 1992 and 15th place in April 1994. In November of that year as well, the program once again produced a topnotcher, securing 9th place in the ECE board examination.

Due to this outcome, the Civil Engineering department produced two more board topnotchers for 2011 and consistently surpassed the national passing rate during May 2012 and 1st in the May 2015 Civil Engineering licensure examinations.

It was also during this time that the Institute of Engineering and Technology started to mirror international standards by requiring its applicants to pass an entrance examination precisely testing analytical capability alongside individual interviews.

The transition of NEW ERA COLLEGE to NEW ERA UNIVERSITY in 1995 entailed a change of the Institute of Engineering to its rebranding as the College of Engineering and Technology. It was a time of immense prestige given to the university stage program levels. The well-constructed environment managed to accommodate the student population. During this time, the College continued to demonstrate academic excellence, with a Mechanical Engineering graduate ranking 5th place in the October 1995 board examination followed by a 6th place achiever and the program's 100% initial passing rate registered in 1995.

From 1996 to 1999, the college was under the leadership of Dr. Lualhati G. Nigos as Dean. During his tenure, the college focused on strengthening its academic foundation through the enhancement of existing engineering programs and the establishment of faculty development initiatives. He prioritized the physical and academic infrastructure and laid out the groundwork for expansion to ensure the university produced competent and globally competitive graduates.

HISTORY AND PROFILE

The College of Education (CED) was established in 1983 and has been one of the foremost colleges at the New Era University. It is a Center of Teacher Training for students who plan to become teachers in the future. It is a home base to some undergraduate organizations, which serve as training grounds for students' planning and leadership skills. Its mother organization, the Educators' Alliance Developing an Optimum Service (EducADOS) supervises the conduct of activities sponsored by CED's umbrella student organizations. These clubs are the following:

GENESIS: the organization for all BEEd students
SMART: a club for those majoring in Mathematics and Science

At present, the CED offers degrees for two programs:
Bachelor of Elementary Education (BEEd) and Bachelor of Secondary Education (BSEd)

There are three degrees under BEEd Program, namely:

• Bachelor of Elementary Education (BEEd)
• Bachelor of Elementary Education with Specialization in Early Childhood Education (BEEd - ECEd)
• Bachelor of Elementary Education with Specialization in Inclusive and Special Needs Education (BEEd - SNEd)

For BSEd, there are seven degrees that are currently offered:

• Bachelor of Secondary Education, Major in English (BSE - English)
• Bachelor of Secondary Education, Major in Filipino
• Bachelor of Secondary Education, Major in Mathematics
• Bachelor of Secondary Education, Major in Social Studies
• Bachelor of Secondary Education, Major in Science
• Bachelor of Secondary Education, Major in MAPE
• Bachelor of Secondary Education, Major in Technology and Livelihood Education

Tracing the CED's historical background, it was in 1985, when it started as an Institute merged with the Institute of Arts and Sciences. The Institute of Education as it was formerly called was primarily led by Dr. Amanda Magsino as its first dean.

By 1988, the Institute of Education (IEd) was separated from the initial merger. This newly separated, independent IEd was led by Dr. Zenaida Soriano. When Dr. Soriano took a leave to work abroad, Dr. Francisca P. Reyes was assigned as OIC for a while. Dr. Lydia L. Libunao who was then the principal of the Elementary Department took the helm from Dr. Francisca P. Reyes and became the dean. The Institute of Education was renamed to the College of Education upon her appointment. Her stewardship of the college lasted for almost 29 years until her untimely demise in 2019...

In 2000, the college put up a laboratory school inside the campus to serve as a laboratory school for further train future teachers. This was an innovation initiated when the college was moving higher to its accreditation status...

In 2007 the college applied for a permit to operate the ladderized course, Bachelor in Secondary Education Major in Technology and Livelihood Education (BSEd – TLE), and Expanded Tertiary Education Equivalency and Accreditation Program (ETEEAP) programs...

The College of Education leaped in its level in March 2008 and became a Center of Teacher Training Institution (COTTI). That was earned in its Level III Accreditation visitation by the PACUCOA (Philippine Association of Colleges and Universities Commission on Accreditation) on October 19-20, 2015.

Since then, the College of Education has continued to produce licensed teachers, even topnotchers. Among the topnotchers of the Licensure Examination for Teachers (LET) were Dr. Liliabeth P. Taa (a CED faculty) who got the 1st place in the 1996 board exam, and this was followed by Ms. Celia Concepcion O. Gregorio who also ranked 1st in 2000, and the most recent, Mr. Dante V. Dela Merced who clinched the 2nd place in August 2014.

In 2019, Dr. Corazon V. Uwayway, the associate dean, took over the helm. It was during the stewardship of Dr. Uwayway that the College of Education revitalized its marketing efforts to motivate and encourage more students to enroll in the college...

Year 2020, the pandemic and a new normal in education and learning set in. Seven (7) faculty members took a leave, while others retired. With this, the College of Education welcomed new blood, faculty members who were younger and technology-savvy... Students from different parts of the world were able to pursue their education and avail the new learning modality which can be accessed through this improved technology.

With the new normal, the school calendar underwent changes as well. The CED graduating class had their virtual commencement exercises before the year ended.

Furthermore, this pandemic brought the heroic deed of the NEU Alumni Association officers... These AAs were the basis for the provision of teacher salaries.

Year 2021, the year started with an aid given to faculty members and staff to at least ease the effect of the pandemic... The CED even spearheaded the Book Writing project of the school, where the teachers in the Integrated School were encouraged and motivated to write their own books in the subjects they have been teaching...

The CED is known as a high performing institution in the field of education. It is a Center for Teacher Training, and produces graduates who are employed as private and public school teachers in the National Capital Region...

The College of Education (CED) has a roster of highly qualified teachers and professors who are seasoned practitioners in the academe. It has a track record of high passing rate in the Board Examinations which is over and above that of the national passing rate. As it was granted a Level 3 Re-accredited status by PACUCOA in 2019, the College of Education, hopefully will apply as a Center for Excellence in the field of Teacher Education soon.

THE COLLEGE SEAL

The proportions of the human form as depicted in the Vitruvian Man of Leonardo da Vinci (c. 1490) symbolizes the corporeal individual which embodies and circumscribes the persona of the human. This cultural icon is considered the representation of the anatomical or structural make-up of the human body which is believed to be divinely created; thus, perfect and correct.

The figure is taken as an embodiment of health; therefore, adopting it as purported. The man is static in nature but dynamic in its presentation of a moving, living man, which is aptly descriptive of what the science and art of physical therapy is and the rest of the physical rehabilitation sciences arena. The teal-colored lines encircling the man suggest the active and self-motivated movement and functioning where promotion, maintenance, development, and restoration of maximum bodily motion, and rehabilitation or habilitation of health are offered via the therapy services.

The white circle stands for the physical environment where the human functions in its activities of daily living and where he maximizes his abilities, capabilities, and potentials in his never-ending quest for independence and self-actualization as a contributing member of the society.

HISTORY AND PROFILE

Established in 2015, the College of Respiratory Therapy (CRT) at New Era University obtained its permit to operate the Bachelor of Science in Respiratory Therapy program from the Commission on Higher Education, with Dr. Danahlyn D. Evangelista serving as its first Dean. By 2017, the Commission granted full government recognition to the program.

Since its inception, the College has consistently demonstrated excellence, producing yearly board exam topnotchers and maintaining a high passing performance, solidifying its reputation as a leading institution in respiratory therapy education. The demand for Respiratory Therapists has been steadily increasing not only in the Philippines but also internationally, even before the global COVID-19 pandemic. In response, the College continues to revise and update its curriculum to remain relevant and responsive to the evolving landscapes of both the Philippine education system and the healthcare industry. Investments in modern facilities ensure that students gain both academic mastery and practical exposure through laboratory and clinical experiences, creating a well-rounded learning environment.

The College also boasts well-stocked and updated respiratory therapy books, alongside a specialized RT laboratory designed to give students hands-on experience. Facilities include mechanical ventilators, spirometry equipment, adult and pediatric mannequins for CPR and intubation, airway care tools, and other respiratory therapy devices. Laboratory activities are carefully structured to foster critical thinking, integration of knowledge, and psychomotor skill development prior to real-life application. Currently, the College is developing a Sleep Study or Polysomnography laboratory to further expand its training capabilities.

Clinical education is recognized as a vital component of professional training in respiratory therapy. The College maintains strong partnerships with modern and advanced training hospitals, providing interns with maximum opportunities to develop clinical skills in cardiopulmonary care. These institutions, equipped with state-of-the-art healthcare technology and clinical facilities, serve as excellent venues for internship training and hands-on practice.

With the rapid advancement of healthcare technology and biomedical innovations, a strong foundation in anatomy and physiology is essential for clinical decision-making, patient assessment, critical care, emergency care, cardiopulmonary disease management, and airway care. This makes respiratory therapy not only a vital profession but also an excellent preparation for those aspiring to pursue medical education and practice. Beyond academics, the CRT has actively engaged in professional and national concerns, hosting significant events and contributing to the advancement of respiratory therapy in the country.

Looking ahead, the College of Respiratory Therapy remains steadfast in its mission to nurture competent, compassionate, and globally competitive respiratory therapists. Guided by innovation, excellence, and service, CRT is committed to shaping future healthcare professionals who will lead in advancing respiratory care and improving lives both locally and internationally

THE COLLEGE SEAL

The scale represents justice, impartiality, and equity which are enshrined in the study of law as well as its practice.

The 3 stars and the sun embody our ideals and goals in service to our nation and countrymen, which is also a reflection of the College of Law's vision to become an institution of legal education firmly embedded in the unique Christian culture of excellence, discipline and service to humanity.

The pillar is intentionally put in the middle, with a symbolic meaning of Godliness, encompassing the philosophy of the New Era University that "Godliness is the foundation of knowledge", further represented by the book atop the pillar.

The shield that embraces all the elements therein represents our promise; the promise to protect those who are weak against those who are strong; to defend the oppressed against tyrants; and to shield the innocent against those who are unjust. Inspired also by Proverbs 31:8-9 (GNT) which stated "Speak up for people who cannot speak for themselves. Protect the rights of all who are helpless. Speak for them and be a righteous judge. Protect the rights of the poor and needy."

HISTORY AND PROFILE

The College of Arts and Sciences traces its roots to 1978, when it began as the Department of Liberal Arts under the New Era Evangelical Institute (NEEI). With only a small group of faculty members offering courses in the social and natural sciences, the department steadily grew and was later recognized as a college under Republic Act 1459 by the Commission on Higher Education.

In 1981, it became the Institute of Arts and Sciences under the leadership of Dr. Perlita Cabilangan. Initially offering AB Psychology and AB Journalism, the institute expanded its academic programs in the years that followed. By 1987, with the transfer to the Diliman campus, additional programs such as Biology, Economics, Foreign Service, and Political Science were introduced—marking a period of steady academic growth.

The 1990s marked a transformative period. Following the institution's transition into New Era University, the Institute was elevated to the College of Arts and Sciences. During this time, academic programs were strengthened, previously inactive offerings were revived, and the College gained recognition through achievements in national literary, arts, and film competitions. At the same time, strong efforts toward accreditation led to Level I and later Level II status from the Philippine Association of Colleges and Universities Commission on Accreditation (PACUCOA). Since then, the College has consistently upheld the standards of PACUCOA in its pursuit of academic excellence and quality assurance.

As the College expanded, specialized departments were established, including language, social sciences, mathematics, science, biology, psychology, and mass communication. The early 2000s saw continued growth, highlighted by the graduation of the first batch of AB Foreign Service students and further academic and administrative development.

In the years that followed, the College sustained its momentum through accreditation advancements, program strengthening, and organizational restructuring. The Mass Communication program transitioned into a separate college in 2014. Further structural development occurred in 2019, when the AB Foreign Service program was also transitioned into a separate academic unit under the School of International Relations, reflecting the University's commitment to specialization and global engagement.

At present, the Science programs of the College of Arts and Sciences hold a Level III Re-accredited Status under PACUCOA, demonstrating the College's sustained commitment to high standards in instruction, research, and extension services.

Today, the College of Arts and Sciences stands as a dynamic academic unit shaped by decades of growth, leadership, and excellence. It remains committed to producing globally competitive, competent, and God-centered professionals in the fields of arts and sciences—continuing its legacy of bringing honor to the University and glory to God.

THE COLLEGE SEAL

At the center, the atomic symbol represents the domain of science, with its nucleus prominently positioned and shared by two jubilant human figures symbolizing the arts. Together, these elements illustrate the harmony, integration, and coexistence of both disciplines, emphasizing the College's commitment to fostering a balanced and unified pursuit of knowledge across the arts and sciences.
