EXTENSION AND COMMUNITY SERVICES
Extension as defined by CHED is the act of communicating and transferring knowledge and technology to specific sectors and target clienteles (as distinguished from those enrolled in formal degree programs and course offerings) to enable them to effectively improve production, community and/or institutions, and quality of life, at the same time enhance the HEI’s academic and research programs (CMO No.8, s. 2010) In the context of HEIs as producers of knowledge or hubs of innovations, extension has also been defined by CHED as the systematic transfer of technology, innovation or information generated by HEIs and its partners (communities, business, and industry) to seek solutions to specific development concerns (CMO No. 52, s.2016).
Extension by its nature and function is therefore geared more towards high-impact sustainable community development. An extension program is to be distinguished from a community outreach program which is more of a stopgap measure, done as need arises, such as dole out assistance to communities struck by calamities or a one-time activity like coastal clean-up, blood-letting, or tree planting. An extension program consists of planned series of activities aimed to address a certain development problem and create a more significant change in the lives of people.

PROCESS FLOW FOR DEVELOPMENT OF EXTENSION PROGRAM
The institution had established a process in the development of the institutional extension program/agenda. The process flow for the implementation of extension programs is stated at the pages 10-11 of the Extension manual of the Institution. Primarily it starts in consultation with the training needs assessment of the community. This is to ensure that the extension program to be conducted is a research-based project. Then training needs assessment results were presented to the partner community for more suggestions, opinions and comments for the project proposal. Next, is the formulation/making of proposal by the proponent to be presented on in-house review per campus and followed by the institutional Extension proposal in-house review.
After a thorough review of the proposal, the extension council then approved and endorsed the project proposal with budgetary requirement to the office of the president. After which, the office of President endorses the project proposal to the Board of Trustee.
