Development and Competition
THEME: STEP Skills: Moving Up from Underground (School
and Backyard) to Mainstream Economy
Academics is not the be-all and end-all
of education. With this competition, recognize that pure
classroom instruction cannot fully satisfy the growing need
to provide pupils and students with opportunities for
practical learning and proper channeling of potential and
interest. Because we believe in the importance of exposing
and preparing young people to face the realities of life, we
implement various programs and projects, all of which,
hopefully, will help pupils and students become more
well-rounded individuals and citizen of our country. The
Educational Programs such as the STEP that serves to
support, enhance and enrich the work education and skills
training, particularly the students. It aims to
establish a shift from the employment creation culture by
nurturing the entrepreneurial and cooperative environment,
skills and competencies of the students. It is being
implemented in partnership with the Department of Education
and entered as one of commitment in the employment summit.
Like the phoenix
rising from the ashes and an eaglet struggling to free
itself from its hell and learning how to fly, the
organization of the Student Technologists and Entrepreneurs
of the Philippines, otherwise known as the STEP , is a
product of a collective desire to establish an organization
that the then Department of Education, can truly call its
own ‑ free to propagate its own rootstocks of ideals and
aspirations, weave its own net of programs, design its own
web page of projects, present its own power point agenda,
and set its own table of rules and regulations.
The STEP as a co-curricular program of the DepEd, is hereby
recognized as a significant support initiative for the TLE
