From the words of William A. Foster, “Quality is never an accident; it is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, intelligent direction, and skillful execution; it represents the wise choice of many alternatives.” And it is through this principle that the College of Industrial Technology welcomes the accrediting team for its Master in Technology Management (MTM) program Level III AACCUP accreditation. In our quest for quality and excellence, we are subjecting our MTM program to review and evaluation.

I hope that through this accreditation, the AACCUP accrediting team will agree with our claim that quality and excellence are a way of life in the MTM program and that these are evident in our operations, processes, and implementations.

On our part, the local Accreditation task force, despite the challenge of the COVID pandemic, has worked hard that required documents are organized and readily available for validation. This is to ensure that the accreditation process will run smoothly.

To the AACCUP Accrediting team, our partner in our pursuit of Quality and Excellence, the entire CIT and CHMSU community are truly grateful for your time and effort in reviewing and evaluating the academic process and operation of our MTM program.

It is with great honor and pleasure to be part of this accreditation wherein our Master of Technology Management (MTM) program will again be assessed for its relevance and responsiveness to the present.

As a program, the Master of Technology Management has continually achieved milestones and passed various requisites of various regulating agencies since it was first offered in Academic Year 2009-2010. With the support of the administration and stakeholders, the program will continue to thrive as more innovations will be intergraded into its core.

Indeed, the MTM program is now ready for the AACCUP Level III Accreditation, and with the help of its competent accreditors, the strengths of the program will be highlighted, and likewise, the limitations of the program will serve as a room for improvements for the program to prosper for the coming years.

Thank you very much and more power AACCUP!
