formulation of the Colleges program outcome.
The BSN program outcomes were formulated through a series of meetings with
the faculty members under the guidance of Professor Oliver Malabanan. The program
outcomes were based on the institutional graduate attributes, the Commission on Higher
Education reference outcomes, Asian Qualifications Reference Framework (AQRF) and
Philippine Qualification Reference Framework (PQRF). The review of the BSN program
outcomes was conducted last September 24, 2015 and was attended by the faculty
