Adamson University Receives Autonomous Status from CHED.
Amidst its achievements and recognitions, Adamson University added another reason to why it is considered one of the premier universities in the country today after being awarded the highest accreditation standard a university can get—the autonomous status imprimatur, after passing the Commission on Higher Education’s (CHED) IQuAME.
IQuAME, which stands for Institutional Quality Assurance through Monitoring and Evaluation, is CHED’s program to ensure quality and excellence, relevance and responsiveness, access and equity, and efficiency in Philippine higher education.
To pass IQuAME is no walk in the park though. One must undergo strict evaluation on five key areas: governance and management, quality of teaching and research, support for students, relations with the community and management resources.
After months of preparation, Adamson has finally landed what many believed to be an accreditation long overdue. The Category A (teaching) autonomous status entitles the University benefits and privileges such as exemption from the issuance of special orders; freedom from monitoring and evaluation activities of CHED; entitlement to grant subsidies and other financial incentives or assistance from CHED whenever funds are available; privilege to determine and prescribe their curricular programs to achieve global competence, privilege to offer a new course/program in the undergraduate or graduate levels; privilege to establish branches or satellite campuses without prior approval from CHED; privilege to offer extension classes and distance education course programs and to establish affiliation with recognized foreign higher education institution; and the authority to grant an Honoris Causa to those deserving following CHED provisions on conferment of honorary degrees.
Aside from the IQuAME accreditation, CHED also handed the Center of Development recognition to Adamson’s Industrial Engineering Department. Recognition was chosen based on the criteria set by the technical panel for Industrial Engineering, which was then approved by the commission. Jan Allen Puertollano

Most Awaited IQuAME Accreditation Given to Adamson.
Most Awaited IQuAME Accreditation Given to Adamson.
The preparation took at least a year of hard work and arduous preparation; the entire village came to provide support and rally towards the win. The result was a magnificent crown which the University can now proudly wear.
The Commission on Higher Education (CHED) recently gave Adamson University the much-coveted certification for the Institutional Monitoring and Evaluation for Quality Assurance or IQuAME during their en banc session last May 26. The certification given will be valid for five years, starting from school year 2010 up to 2015.
IQuAME is CHED’s program to ensure quality and excellence, relevance and responsiveness, access and equity, and efficiency in Philippine higher education. Its four-fold objectives in certifying worthy schools is to enhance the institution’s capacity in designing, delivering, and managing programs and services; to identify areas for reform and intervention; to provide accurate, up-to-date information on performance of higher education institutions to enable stakeholders to make informed choices; and to enable the institution to set up its own Institutional Quality Assurance Management System. These objectives are stipulated in CHED Memorandum Order No. 15, Series of 2005.
The certification means that Adamson has met the requirements and have complied with the standards set forth by CHED to determine the worthiness of its education and service. It will be the prime evidence of Adamson’s claim in providing first-rate education, at par with the best schools in the country. This achievement also comes at the heels of Adamson’s drive towards obtaining autonomous status. Yael Esperat

Adamson trips JRU, sets quartefinal date with Ateneo
Adamson trips JRU, sets quartefinal date with Ateneo
Adamson spoiled Jose Rizal University’s bid to claim the top spot in Group B after hacking out a 71-62 victory in the 2010 FilOil Flying V Preseason Invitational Cup at The Arena in San Juan City.
The Falcons wasted a commanding 15-point the third quarter lead and even trailed, 61-60, with more than six minutes left to play. But key baskets and huge defensive stops in the fourth quarter turned things around for the San Marcelino-based quintet.
Adamson finished the elimination round with a 5-3 mark, enough to boost its confidence heading into their quarterfinal duel against two-time UAAP champion Ateneo Blue Eagles on Wednesday.
“We slowly learn how to execute well down the stretch. That was our big problem the last two seasons (in the UAAP),” said coach Leo Austria. “Hopefully we can carry this come the UAAP campaign.”
The loss forced JRU to a three-way tie for first with idle teams San Sebastian and defending champion Far Eastern U with identical 6-2 records. But it will be the Stags and the Tamaraws who will gain the Top 2 seedings based on a higher tiebreak while while the Heavy Bombers fell to No. 3.
Thus San Sebastian will battle La Salle, FEU meets University of the Philippines and JRU faces San Beda in the other quarterfinal pairings.
Alex Nuyles scored 16 of his 17 points in the second half while veteran big man Jan Colina and Eric Camson added 11 points each for the Falcons.
Adamson led by 15 points twice, the last at 52-37 with 6:02 left in the third on Jerick Canada’s jumper.
JRU, which won its previous six games, stormed back and even grabbed a 61-60 lead on Hector Badua’s bank shot with 6:10 remaining in the final quarter.
But Nuyles answered quickly at the other end, his jumper sparking an 11-1 windup as JRU struggled to shoot down the stretch.
Cameroonian center Joe Etame led the Heavy Bombers, coming off a one-week training in Korea, with 15 points in the loss.
In other results, San Beda eliminated Perpetual Help from quarterfinal contention after a 110-76 rout of the Altas.
San Beda’s (6-1) win gave La Salle (4-3) a free ride in the quarterfinals since Perpetual ended the eliminations with a 3-4 card.
In the first game, National University needed two extensions in pulling off a 68-67 win over the RP under-18 team. The Bulldogs finished with a 3-5 record. – JVP, GMANews.TV
