For monitoring and compliance of Mindanao State University at Naawan’s (MSUN) offered academic programs, the Commission on Higher Education Regional Office-X (CHEDRO-X) officials visited MSUN on January 17, 2024.

Fuentes, Chief Education Program Specialist and the Team Leader of the COPC Evaluators. After the short program, evaluators proceeded with the evaluation of the library, student affairs and services, and different academic programs offered by every college. “The issuance of COPC from CHED affirms MSU at Naawan’s commitment of giving quality education, that our programs complied with the minimum standards set by the Commission. Not only that, having this certification also means that we can apply for higher level of accreditation of our programs,” said Assistant Professor Gergie A. Ambato, Vice-Chancellor for Academic Affairs. Finally, during the post-conference for the discussion and presentation of the results of the findings, there was a fruitful discussion stressing the growth and progress of MSUN in terms of faculty profile, facilities, and student services.
