History

In 1967, the Philippine government recognized that the courses in the institution were valid for a degree in Bachelor in Secondary Education (BSEd). Two years later, the school's curriculum for the course in Bachelor of Science in Industrial Education (BSIEd) was also approved. In 1972, the institution started an outreach program called Manpower Training Department (MTD), now called TVET, for low-income students.
