INTRODUCTION

GRADE 12 Senior High School Students have started their work immersion
related to their elected academic track or their selected vocational course. The
immersion trains students and strengthen their skill or expertise for their work in
companies. According to the Department of Education, this program is an 80-hour
hands-on encounter which Senior High students must experience to open them to the
genuine working environment setting and improve their abilities learned in school.
The Department of Labor and Employment said work this is an integral part of the K
to 12 Program in fully realizing its goal to produce job-ready graduates equipped with
industry-bas3ed skills. DOLE strongly affirms that work immersion contributes to the
full realization of the objectives of K to 12 Program.
Through this program, the students can be ready for their big step in working and
be comfortable and familiar with business-related conditions in line with their
specialization. Students experience the social interaction in work environment that
would help them as they graduate and face real life. Work immersion is useful as it
enables Senior High students to decide if what they have chosen in school is what
they want to have as a career. Being able to test their skills and knowledge in practice
will help them develop their career choice. Immersion is one of the course
requirements for graduation.
A Senior High School student has to undergo Work Immersion in an industry that
directly relates to the student’s post secondary goal. Through Work Immersion, the
students are exposed to and become familiar with work-related environment related to
their field of specialization to enhance their competence. Specifically, the students are
able to; (i) gain relevant and practical industrial skills under the guidance of industry
experts and workers ;(ii)appreciate the importance and application of the principles
and theories taught in school;(iii) enhance their technical knowlegde and skills ;(iv)
enrich their skills in communications and human relations; and (v) develop good work
habits, attitudes, appreciations, and respect for work. These prepare them to meet the
needs and challenges of employment or higher education after graduation.
OBJECTIVES:
One of the goals of the K to 12 basic Education Program is to develop learners
the competencies, work ethic, and values relevant to pursuing further education and/or
joining the world of work. To achieve greater congruence between basic education
and the nation’s development targets, Work Immersion, a required subject has been
incorporated into the curriculum. This subject will provide learners with opportunities

1. To become familiar with the workplace;

2. For employment simulation; and
3. To apply their competencies in areas of specialization/applied subject in
authentic work environments.

To achieve the above objectives, work immersion is thus a requirement for

graduation from secondary education. Learners are immersed in actual work
environment such as workshop office and laboratories in which their prior training is
relevant. This provide process support to flied offices of the Department of
Education in fostering relationship and strengthening partnership so that learners
will have access to suitable work immersion venues and other related resources.
