AppliedHE Xchange:
FCPC @ Bulacan 2026
"A Strategic Approach to Internationalisation, Graduate Employability & Alumni Engagement"
City of San Jose del Monte,
Bulacan, Philippines
Student Diversity & Outcomes That Matter
The AppliedHE Xchange @ FCPC is a one-day strategic forum focused on Student Diversity & Outcomes, examining how institutions align internationalisation, employability and alumni engagement for measurable impact.
As higher education institutions across the Philippines and the wider region expand global engagement, there is growing pressure to demonstrate how these efforts translate into tangible graduate outcomes and essential soft skills.
The programme is grounded in AppliedHE's 3M framework - the "Three Musketeers" of JOB-Ready, ALUMNI-Ready and SOFT SKILLS-Ready - providing a structured approach to evidence-based outcomes.
