Partido State University (ParSU), through the Partido State University Non-Teaching Personnel Association, Inc. (PSUNTPA Inc.), celebrated the National Education Support Personnel Day on May 21, 2026, through “BIDA ANG SUPORTA: A Community Meryenda and Fellowship Games” held at the ParSU Gymnasium, Goa Campus.

In his message, ParSU President Dr. Arnel B. Zarcedo underscored the importance of recognizing support personnel as integral partners in institutional development, emphasizing that while they may be in the background, they are the backbone of operations. He further remarked that, “As we continue to grow as a University, I hope we also continue to grow as one community where support personnel are not treated as secondary, but as essential — not just as employees behind the scenes, but as partners in building the future of this institution.”

The activity honored the hard work and valuable contributions of the NTP to the University’s daily operations and service delivery. Through fellowship games and a community meryenda, personnel strengthened camaraderie, promoted wellness, and fostered unity.
By recognizing the indispensable role and dedication of education support personnel, ParSU cultivates a motivated, collaborative, and service‑oriented workforce that enhances institutional efficiency and improves the quality of services for students, stakeholders, and the wider community.

May 16 is declared National Education Support Personnel Day under Republic Act No. 12178 — a special working holiday recognizing the vital contributions of non‑teaching personnel in advancing education and institutional development.

Partido State University (ParSU) continues to strengthen its commitment to quality and transformative education as several academic programs successfully earned re-accreditation status from the Accrediting Agency of Chartered Colleges and Universities in the Philippines, Inc. (AACCUP).

Among the recognized programs, the Level IV Re-accredited programs stand as a testament to sustained excellence and the highest standards. These include the 𝐁𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐒𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐓𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐦 𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐠𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐇𝐨𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐓𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐦 𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 – 𝐒𝐚𝐧 𝐉𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐂𝐚𝐦𝐩𝐮𝐬, the Bachelor of Elementary Education and Bachelor of Secondary Education of the College of Education, and the BS Biology program of the College of Science.

Meanwhile, the Level III Re-accredited programs likewise reflect strong academic performance and continuous improvement across disciplines. These include the BS Hospitality Management of the College of Sustainable Communities and Ecosystems – Caramoan Campus, the BS Nutrition and Dietetics of the College of Public Safety and Community Health – Lagonoy Campus, the BS Sanitary Engineering of the College of Engineering and Computational Sciences, and the BS Geology of the College of Science.

Building on these achievements, Level IV accreditation is recognized as the highest level of program quality, awarded to programs that demonstrate excellent outcomes in Research, Teaching and Learning, Community Service, International Linkages and Consortia, and Planning processes that strongly support institutional quality assurance mechanisms.

Similarly, Level III accreditation recognizes programs that have already met high standards and continue to demonstrate excellence in key areas such as Instruction, Extension and/or Research, Faculty Development, Licensure Examination Performance, Consortia/Linkages, and Library and Learning Resources.

The Level IV Re-accredited programs carry a validity period from February 1, 2026, to January 31, 2031, while the Level III Re-accredited programs are valid from February 1, 2026, to January 31, 2030. These periods reflect the sustained quality and continuing compliance of ParSU’s academic programs in maintaining standards of excellence.

More than institutional achievements, the re-accreditations reflect the collective dedication of administrators, the Quality Assurance Office, faculty members, non-teaching personnel, students, alumni, and stakeholders in ensuring that quality education remains accessible, responsive, and transformative.

Congratulations, ParSU!
