STI College continues to nurture future-ready students

In the ever-evolving landscape of education, STI College stands as a testament to the power of vision, innovation and unwavering commitment.

Over the span of four decades, what started as a computer programming school has become one of the largest networks of schools in the Philippines, home to bright and promising students, achievers and dedicated educators who are committed to impart knowledge and nurture individuals to become competent and responsible members of society.

As STI College celebrates its 40th anniversary, the institution takes a moment to reflect on its inspiring journey and anticipate the promising road ahead as the institution moves 40RWARD (forward).

Established on 21 August 1983, the founders of the institution embarked on a visionary mission to bridge the gap between education and the IT (information technology) industry. They recognized the need to equip Filipino students with globally competitive computer skills that would seamlessly integrate them into the workforce. This visionary spirit led to the establishment of the Systems Technology Institute (now known as STI College), and over the years, it has consistently embraced its core commitment to quality and real-life education.

Fast forward to today, STI College has evolved into a pioneering institution with 63 campuses offering courses and programs beyond IT education and nurturing more than 100,000 students nationwide. This evolution hasn't been solely marked by growth in numbers; it's a growth in impact. Graduates of STI College aren't just academically prepared; they're job-ready, life-ready and future-ready.

In addition, collaboration with key industry players forms the bedrock of STI's educational strategy. This bridges the gap between classroom learning and real-world application, making graduates well-equipped for the challenges of their chosen professions.

The education landscape has undergone seismic shifts over the past 40 years. STI College has not only kept pace with these changes but has consistently stayed ahead of the curve. The institution played a pivotal role in implementing the Department of Education's K-to-12 program as the largest pioneer of Senior High Schools in the country, marking another milestone in its commitment to national educational progress.
