GUIDELINES ON THE MANDATORY RECOGNITION OF IMPLEMENTING ALTERNATIVE LEARNING SYSTEM (ALS) PROVIDERS
I. Background and Rationale
1. The Department of Education (DepEd), through the Bureau of Alternative Education (BAE), is mandated by Republic Act No. 11510 or the Alternative Learning System (ALS) Act to create a system of recognition and monitoring of ALS Providers, standards of ALS service delivery, and a system of rewards and incentives with the private sector to ensure a sustainable implementation of ALS programs.
2. The Alternative Learning System (ALS) has long been supported by ALS Providers, such as government agencies, private institutions, and civic society organizations, financed by foreign-assisted projects, among others. The ALS programs implemented by these ALS Providers constitute a significant portion of the ALS enrollment on the national scale. Over the years, the implementation practices of these ALS Providers have varied when they collaborate with different governance levels of the Department.
3. The absence of a policy that sets standards to guide ALS Providers in the implementation of ALS programs led to some implementation issues and concerns across all DepEd governance levels. To identify these issues and concerns, BAE conducted a focus group discussion (FGD) with ALS implementors. The feedback and inputs during the FGD were considered in drafting this policy.
4. Hence, DepEd shall create a system of recognition and monitoring of ALS Providers, incorporating a set of standards and a system of rewards and incentives. Through the system of recognition, baseline data on implementing ALS Providers shall be established and updated annually.
II. Scope
5. This policy provides the rules, standards, and quality assurance procedures for the Mandatory Recognition of Implementing ALS Providers at all governance levels of the Department.
6. This policy provides the legal basis to clearly define the authority, rights, and obligations of the different governance levels in the recognition of Implementing ALS Providers.
III. Definition of Terms
7. For the purposes of this policy, the following key terms are operationally defined:
a. Accreditation and Equivalency Program (A&E Program) refers to a program in ALS aimed at providing an alternative pathway of learning for out-of-school children in special cases and adults who have not completed basic education. Through this program, school dropouts are able to complete elementary and secondary education outside the formal school system.
b. Academic-Focused Bridging Programs (AFBP) refer to ALS programs that provide continuing learning opportunities to Accreditation and Equivalency secondary level learners and test passers who wish to better prepare for the academic demands and study skills requirements of senior high school, tertiary education, post-secondary vocational training, or both.
c. Alternative Learning System (ALS) refers to a parallel learning system that provides a viable alternative to the existing formal education instruction. It encompasses both nonformal and informal sources of knowledge and skills.
d. Alternative Learning System Act refers to Republic Act No. 11510 or An Act Institutionalizing the ALS in Basic Education for Out-of-School Children in Special Cases and Adults and Appropriating Funds Therefor.
e. ALS 2.0 Five-Year Strategic Roadmap refers to the five-year (2019-2024) strategic plan of the ALS Program to ensure that the system's improvement anchored on the ALS K to 12 BEC are aligned with the strategic directions of DepEd to (i) Expand Access to Basic Education, (ii) Improve Quality and Relevance, and (iii) Modernize Education Management and Governance.
f. ALS Curriculum refers to the comprehensive curriculum indicating the competency, content, key stages, and standards for the ALS program. The ALS Curriculum is benchmarked on the DepEd formal school curriculum and focuses on the 21st Century Skills: information, media, and technology skills, learning and innovation skills, communication skills, and life and career skills.
g. ALS Implementors refer to the collective group of organizations and individuals implementing ALS Programs, regardless of funding source and implementing organization and/ or individual. Specifically, this includes ALS Teachers, Community ALS Implementors (CAIs), Learning Facilitators (LFs), and Teacher Aides.
h. ALS Learners refer to out-of-school children in special cases, out-of-school youth, and adults, which include, among others, indigenous peoples, learners with disabilities, teenage mothers, socioeconomically disadvantaged learners, children in conflict with the law, persons deprived of liberty, rebel returnees, learners in emergency situations, and other marginalized sectors who have not completed basic education and are enrolled in ALS Programs.

j. Basic Literacy Program (BLP) refers to the program of ALS that is aimed at eradicating illiteracy among out-of-school children in special cases and adults by developing basic literacy skills of reading, writing, numeracy, and simple comprehension.
k. Certificate of Recognition refers to the certificate given to either external individuals or organizations that successfully comply with this policy. It shall serve as the Permit to Operate ALS programs. The Certificate of Recognition shall be valid for two (2) School Years (SY) for which it is issued, and its validity shall depend on the program/ s to be implemented by the Recognized Implementing ALS Provider. On the continuous compliance with the requirements under this policy, the Certificate of Recognition upon renewal shall be valid for two (2) to five (5) School Years.
1. Collaborative Teaching refers to all arrangements that include two or more ALS Implementors collaborating in a learning session or program of instruction.
m. Community ALS Implementors (CAIs) refer to persons engaged-by any local government unit (LGU) and other government agencies to deliver ALS programs to out-of-school children in special cases, out-of-school youth, and adults. This includes ALS programs implemented by the other national government agencies, local government units, state universities and colleges, and local universities and colleges. CAIs are not regular DepEd teachers, with separate working conditions and renumeration levels based on agreed standards with their contracting party.
n. Community Learning Center (CLC) refers to a physical space to house learning resources and facilities of a learning program for out-of-school children in special cases and adults. It is a venue for face-to-face learning activities and other learning opportunities for community development and improvement of the people's quality of life. CLC may either be a School-based Learning Center (SBLC) or a Community-based Learning Center (CBLC).
SBLC or CBLC shall be classified into five (5) types:
Type 1: A simple, temporary meeting place with tables and chairs or any open multi-purpose area or any private property temporarily lent for learning purposes.
Type 2: A semi-permanent structure made mostly out of light materials (e.g., nipa, softwood) and equipped with basic furniture and learning equipment.
Type 3: A typical barangay learning center or school classroom, permanent and secured, mostly made of cement and other
heavy building materials, and equipped with basic furniture and learning equipment.
Type 4: A single or multi-storey building fully equipped with basic furniture and advanced Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) for learning (e.g., computers), which is dedicated to ALS learning sessions and related activities.
Type 5: A permanent building equipped with ALS and other learning materials, Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), laboratory, Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) facilities (e.g., toilet, water, and hand washing facilities) utilized by learners and other members of the community, and functions as resource centers where materials are either transported from house to house or borrowed by individual interested community members. It is also accessible to learners with limited mobility. It is a centralized learning, resource, and training center and serves multiple sub-CLCs in the area.
o. Functional Education and Literacy Program (FELP) refers to the short-term nonformal education program designed to help socioeconomically disadvantaged learners upgrade a targeted set of skills, knowledge, and selected competencies in the ALS Curriculum in order to improve their social, political, and economic well-being and function more effectively as citizens, parents, workers and members of the community.
p. Implementing ALS Providers refer to the non-DepEd recognized individuals or organizations/institutions that implement ALS programs, which include the following:
Government refers to National Government Agencies (NGAs), Local Government Units (LGUs), and State Universities and Colleges (SUCs) that engage CAIs in the implementation of ALS programs.
Private refers to private schools, individuals, companies, and Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) that engage individual learning facilitators in the implementation of ALS programs.
Civil Society Organization (CSO) refers to non-government organizations (NGOs), both international and local, faith-based organizations, as well as various associations and cooperatives that engage individual learning facilitators in the implementation of ALS programs.
Foreign-Assisted Project refers to special projects financed by development providers that incorporate the implementation of project-funded ALS programs with specific target groups and geographic areas. Foreign-assisted projects may sub-contract organizations to implement ALS programs (through hiring Learning Facilitators) or may directly engage individual Learning Facilitators
q. Learning Facilitators refer to teachers financed by the private sector who implement ALS programs. The private sector shall include nongovernment organizations or associations, civil society organizations, or individuals.
r. Literacy Mapping refers to a process of gathering data on out-of-school children in special cases, youths, and adults in the community as potential enrollees in the ALS.
s. Partnership refers to the linkage or relationship established by the DepEd Central Office or its Regional and Schools Division Offices with other organizations to implement the ALS programs. Such partnerships may be formalized through a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) or Memorandum of Understanding (MOU).
t. Recognition, also called “Implementing ALS Provider Recognition,” is the main subject of this policy and is a prerequisite for providing official services for ALS that are formally recognized by DepEd through the issuance of a Certificate of Recognition. This is essentially the authorization of providers to implement ALS programs. This can also be considered as the Permit to Operate issued by DepEd for prospective providers to be able to implement ALS programs.
u. Teacher Aide refers to an individual with relevant credentials who, under the supervision of the ALS Teacher, CAI, or Learning Facilitator, provides support during the implementation of ALS programs.
IV. Policy Statement
8. This policy aims to standardize the procedures in recognizing ALS Providers (individual or institution) intending to collaborate with DepEd in implementing ALS programs. As the basis for a working relationship, it creates authority, rights, and obligations for all parties involved. This intends to address operational issues across all governance levels (Central Office, Regional Office, and Schools Division Office) of DepEd by providing quality assurance standards in establishing partnerships to implement ALS programs.
V. Standards and Procedures
A. Recognition Procedures
9. For SY 2025-2026, implementing ALS Providers with an existing Memorandum of Agreement/Memorandum of Understanding (MOA/MOU) with DepEd may continue to implement the ALS programs. However, they shall be required to comply with this DepEd Order starting SY 2026-2027.
10. Starting SY 2026-2027, all interested applicants for recognition shall be subjected to the procedure on the recognition of Implementing ALS Providers prior to offering ALS programs.
11. Figure 1 shows the flow chart of the Recognition Process.
IMAGE HERE
12. The applicant seeking recognition shall submit a formal application for recognition, including the necessary documentary requirements, at least nine (9) months before the opening of ALS classes. The applicant shall submit these documents to CO if the coverage of ALS program implementation is across multiple regions. If the coverage is more than one SDO within the region, submit it to RO. If the coverage of ALS program implementation is within the SDO, submit it to the SDO. (See Enclosure No. 2a for the list of requirements.)
13. The CO, through BAE, RO, or SDO, shall ensure the completeness of the submitted documents and accomplish the Implementing ALS Provider Recognition Evaluation Form (Enclosure No. 2a).
If the submitted documents are found to be lacking or not in accordance with the requirements stipulated herein, the applicant for recognition shall be formally notified in writing via mail or email and be required to complete the documents and submit them to the concerned Office within 30 calendar days upon receipt of the notification.
Failure to observe the schedule for submission of documents would result in the cancellation of the application for recognition. The applicant may join the next round of submission in the subsequent School Year.
14. Upon validation of the submitted documents, the concerned DepEd Office shall notify the applicant of the site visit schedule. A Validation Team (Enclosure 2b) shall be formed, comprising members from different governance levels. During the site visit, the Validation Team shall:
(i) inspect the proposed CLC/learning environment to check compliance with minimum standard of at least Type 3 CLC;
(ii) verify the track record and stated capacity to implement ALS programs;
(iii) review and discuss with the applicant the ALS program implementation· plan;
(iv) assess the Weekly Learning Logs (WLLs) to be used for the first month of implementation;
(v) evaluate the teaching demonstration by the proposed Learning Facilitators;
(vi) check the proposed learning resources; and
(vii) inspect other aspects of operations related to the ALS program that DepEd might deem relevant.
If the applicant is non-compliant with the minimum standards upon inspection, the applicant seeking recognition shall be formally notified and be allowed to comply within 30 calendar days upon the receipt of the notification. Once the applicant for recognition is ready for re-validation, it shall submit a request for a final site visit to the concerned DepEd Office.
If, upon revalidation and the final site visit, the applicant still does not comply with the minimum standards, the applicant for recognition shall be notified to apply for recognition for the next School Year to give them ample time to complete the requirements.
15. Once the concerned DepEd Office completes the site visit/s and finds compliance with the requirements, a certificate of Recognition is issued. The Certificate of Recognition for Implementing ALS Providers (Enclosure No. 3a, 3b, and 3c), which shall be given to external individuals or organizations that successfully comply with this policy, shall serve as the Permit to Operate ALS programs. The validity of the Certificate of Recognition shall be for two (2) School Years (SY) for which it is issued and shall depend on the program/s to be implemented by the ALS Provider.
The DepEd, through the BAE, ROs, or SDOs, shall issue this Certificate of Recognition upon the recommendation of the evaluation team of the concerned governance level. The said Certificate shall be assigned with a Unique Control Number (UCN) following the format below:
For Central Office-issued Certificate of Recognition:
(BAE-Year-Sequential Unique Number)
Example BAE-2025-0001
For Regional Office-issued Certificate of Recognition:
(RO No. or Name-Year-Sequential Unique Number)
Example ROl-2025-0001, RONCR-2025-0001
For Schools Division Office-issued Certificate of Recognition:
(Division Code-Year-Sequential Unique Number)
Example 069-2025-0001
This UCN shall be placed on the lower left corner of the Certificate of Recognition.
If the requirements under this policy are continuously met, the Certificate of Recognition, upon renewal, could be valid for up to five (5) years, subject to the evaluation stipulated under Item 27 hereunder.
16. Upon issuance of the Certificate of Recognition, the issuing office shall formally inform through a letter the other two governance levels regarding the approval of the application of the Implementing ALS Providers. (e.g., BAE, as an office issuing the Certificate of Recognition, shall formally inform the concerned Regional Office and the Schools Division Office, which have jurisdiction over the Implementing ALS Provider.) The concerned DepEd Office shall keep a roster of recognized Implementing ALS Providers, while all recognized Implementing ALS Providers shall display a copy of their Certificate of Recognition in a conspicuous area in their learning centers and on their official website/social media account, if available.
17. Starting SY 2026-2027, only Implementing ALS Providers awarded by DepEd with the Certificate of Recognition are authorized to implement the DepEd's ALS programs. Interim arrangements for the previous school year are subject to the provisions of Section VII, Effectivity and Transitory Provisions of this policy.
18. The following benefits shall be provided to all Recognized Implementing ALS Providers:
a. Participation in orientations and training to be conducted by DepEd through cost-sharing arrangements
b. Limited Access to the Learner Information System (LIS), e.g., encoding of enrollment and viewing of enrolled learners;
c. Provision of technical assistance;
d. Limited Access to the DepEd Learning Portal; and
e. Tax incentives may be availed subject to existing government laws, regulations, policies, and guidelines, as applicable.
19. Once the Certificate of Recognition is issued, a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) /Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) (Enclosure No. 4) shall be forged between the Recognized Implementing ALS Provider and the appropriate DepEd Office. The MOA/MOU details each party's commitments, responsibilities, and accountabilities related to the implementation of ALS programs, including other standard legal provisions. A sample MOA is attached (Enclosure 4). The formulation of MOA/MOU shall be reviewed by the appropriate DepEd legal officer/s and approved by the relevant office. If the SDO has no legal officer, the legal review may be conducted by the legal officer of the RO.
20. The Certificate of Recognition serves as a permit to operate. Therefore, the recognized Implementing ALS Provider may proceed with implementing the approved ALS program. The appropriate DepEd office shall ensure the progress of the MOA/MOU and that it is finalized and signed as soon as possible.
B. Minimum and Continuing Requirements for Recognition
21. The Implementing ALS Providers shall comply with the following minimum requirements and conditions for recognition. No modification shall be made to these requirements since these are mandated in Section 16.4 of the IRR of the ALS Act:
a. Curriculum: Implementing ALS Providers offering either Basic Literacy Program (BLP), Accreditation and Equivalency (A&E) Elementary, A&E Junior High School, and ALS Senior High School shall use the current ALS Curriculum as a minimum standard for the scope and sequence of competencies to be covered. Implementing ALS Providers may contextualize the curriculum at the point of implementation to align with local realities, conditions, and situations. Beyond the minimum standard, Implementing ALS Providers are encouraged to add supplemental competencies to meet the unique learning needs and context of their learners or complementary programs (e.g., technical skills training). Implementing ALS Providers assigned in locations with special groups of learners that require the supplementation of the ALS curriculum with other programs, such as the Arabic Language and Islamic Values Education (ALIVE), Special Needs Education (SNED), Indigenous Peoples Education (IPEd), and others, shall use the relevant DepEd curricula but may also utilize local curricula contextualized to the unique needs of learners. Technical, vocational, and other life skills (e.g., community development) may be integrated to contextualize the academic competencies of the current ALS Curriculum, provide opportunities for application, and practice in real-world contexts, and enhance interest, motivation, and engagement of the learners. Implementing ALS Providers interested in implementing other DepEd ALS programs, such as the Functional Education and Literacy Program (FELP) and Academic-Focused Bridging Programs (AFBP), shall use the recommended competencies/ course design.
b. Community ALS Implementor/ALS Learning Facilitator: RA 11510, Section 14 seeks to enhance the quality of ALS service delivery and directs the DepEd to develop minimum national standards to guide Implementing ALS Providers in hiring qualified personnel to teach their ALS programs. Consistent with RA 7836 (Philippine Teachers Professionalization Act of 1994) as amended by RA 9293, in relation to Presidential Decree No. 1006 (Providing for the Professionalization of Teachers, Regulating Their Practice in the Philippines and for Other Purposes), no individual may qualify as Community ALS Implementors/Learning Facilitators unless he/ she has passed the Licensure Examination for Teachers (LET) or Professional Board Examination for Teachers (PBET). He/ she must also satisfy all the requirements enumerated under said laws in order to be eligible to practice the teaching profession. However, an individual who is a non-LET passer may qualify as a learning facilitator if he/ she satisfies the requirements provided under section 8 of RA 10533 (Enhanced Basic Education Act of 2013 and its IRR).
Further, the Implementing ALS Providers may hire Teacher Aides and other support personnel to help deliver ALS classes under the supervision of the ALS Teachers, Community ALS Implementors/ Learning Facilitators.
c. Community Learning Center: CLCs shall ensure that learning environments are conducive for learning the set competencies of the ALS Curriculum. The Implementing ALS Providers need not necessarily own these CLCs but are expected to ensure that these locations will be available for learning sessions as scheduled between the learners and the Learning Facilitator. It is for this reason that Implementing ALS Providers are expected to:
i. provide at least a Type 3 CLC
ii. secure access to complementary learning environments equipped with facilities/equipment needed to teach science-related competencies, digital literacy, and relevant TVET skills (if applicable) and other special equipment/learning tools as may be needed for A&E Junior High School and Senior High School Programs
d. Learning Materials: Unless otherwise specified, the main learning materials that shall be used for the implementation of the ALS Programs shall be the ones developed or approved by DepEd. Other supplementary materials may also be used, provided that they are aligned with the curriculum.
e. Learning Delivery: Implementing ALS Providers are expected to follow the DepEd's minimum standards on teacher-learner ratio, program duration, and modalities. The selection of learning program pedagogy and/ or andragogy shall be based on the learning needs, context, and preferences of ALS learners and the requirements of the curriculum.
f. Learner Assessment: The minimum assessment standards used by Community ALS Implementors/Learning Facilitators engaged by the Implementing ALS Providers shall be similar to the standards for ALS Teachers, consistent with the existing DepEd policies on assessment for ALS learners.
Types of Assessment for ALS Programs
ALS Major Programs | ALS Enhancement Programs | |||

v. Implementing ALS Providers shall coordinate with local DepEd offices regarding the planning and targeting of their ALS program interventions to facilitate the harmonization and synergy of DepEd and non-DepEd ALS programs and avoid duplication and overlapping of program coverage.
vi. Implementing ALS Providers shall invest in the mandated, regular, and ongoing capacity building of Community ALS Implementors/Learning Facilitators to ensure they have the necessary minimum competencies to successfully implement the ALS programs and support their ALS learners to achieve their individual learning goals and optimum learning outcomes. This includes conducting basic and enhancement training sessions, instructional supervision, coaching and mentoring, and provision of technical assistance, as may be required.
vii. Implementing ALS Providers shall remunerate their Community ALS Implementors/Learning Facilitators in a fair and equitable manner and in accordance with existing government laws, regulations, policies, and guidelines. Implementing ALS Providers shall be subject to appropriate sanctions mentioned under item 29 hereunder for violation of any of the provisions stipulated in this policy.
h. Other Expectations/ Support: Implementing ALS Providers are expected to:
i. Conduct completion or graduation ceremonies for all completers of the current School Year. Implementing ALS Providers are expected to conduct completion or graduation ceremonies in accordance with the DepEd guidelines on the conduct of such activities for the corresponding School Year.
ii. Provide post-program support services. Implementing ALS Providers are expected to provide post-program support services to their ALS completers, including guidance counseling and referral services, to help facilitate the completers' successful pursuit of their preferred program exits (employment, self-employment, technical skills training, continuing education).
