OF
WORK IMMERSION
INTRODUCTION
OBJECTIVES
S E C T I O N 1 : R AT I O N A L E
One of the goals of the K to 12 Basic Education Program is to develop in 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 work place;
2. for employment simulation; and
3. to apply their competencies in areas of specialization/applied subjects 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 environments such as workshops
offices and laboratories in which their prior training is relevant. Other possible venues for work
immersion are listed in Annex B.
These guidelines were formulated based on the rich experiences of modeling schools, tech-
voc schools, partnership focal persons, industry partners, and youth development advocates.
These guidelines can provide process support to field offices of the Department of Education
(DepEd) in fostering relationships and strengthening partnerships so that learners will have
access to suitable work immersion venues and oth
SECTION 2: SCOPE
These guidelines shall apply to all Senior High School learners in the following institutions:
1. DepEd Senior High Schools
2. Private Senior High Schools
3. Senior High Schools run by state colleges and universities, and local universities and
colleges
4. Technical-Vocational Institutions
willing to lend their expertise and resources; and enter into agreement with any of the
DepEd or Non-DepEd offices and/or schools. This enables DepEd to strengthen its
capability to offer Senior High School, without monetary requirements from both.
2. Memorandum of Agreement is a legally binding document, which spells out the specific
terms and conditions between and among parties entering into a partnership to
implement a program, project, or any other similar undertaking. It can be entered into at
the central, regional, division, or school level. The scope and limitations of the
Memorandum of Agreement shall not be contrary to laws, public customs, and moral
compasses.
3. Partnership refers to the relationship between the partner institution and the school, or
any office of DepEd (Central Regional or Division) that responds to the needs of the K to
12 program in general, and Senior High School in particular, which is formalized through
a Memorandum of Agreement.
involves hands-on experience or work simulation in which learners can apply their
competencies and acquired knowledge relevant to their track.
6. Work Immersion Partner Institution Supervisor serves as the counterpart of the Work
Immersion Teacher and may also be the representative of the partner institution in forging
partnership with DepEd schools. This person shall be identified in the MOA.
7. Work Immersion Teacher is the school personnel who is assigned to supervise the
learners at the Work Immersion Venue in coordination with the Work Immersion Partner
Institution Supervisor.
8. Workplace Immersion Venue is the place where work immersion is conducted. It shall
conform with the law and the rules and regulations on safety, appropriateness for
learning, and availability of facilities and equipment, which are issued by the DepEd (DO
No. 40 s. 2015), Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA),
Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE), Commission on Higher Education
(CHED), and other relevant government agencies. Examples of work immersion venues
include offices, factories, shops, and project sites.

Partnership with Institutions shall be governed and guided by the following principles and
policies:
Work Immersion requires parental consent.
Partner Institutions and Work Immersion Venues shall be selected only after thorough study,
screening and preparation to ensure that each venue is a safe, secure, and suitable place for
learning. All applicable safety guidelines of TESDA, DOLE, and the work immersion venue
relevant to basic education shall apply.
Schools may partner with any institution or organization duly registered/recognized by any
accrediting government agency. These may include cooperatives, local government units
(LGUs), duly registered companies, and non-government organizations (NGOs). Annex B
provides suggested institutions for corresponding specializations.
All Work Immersion agreements at the school level must be covered by a Memorandum of
Agreement (MOA) for the security of all parties involved. All MOAs must specify that all parties
will conform to these guidelines. All learner activities shall be reflected in the MOA as
stipulated in the Prescribed Template for the List of Tasks/Activities to be done during Work
Immersion which can be found in Annex C.
The Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) for Work Immersion must have provisions for the
following:

responsibilities of each of the partners
b. access to and use of partner institution’s facilities by learners and teachers;
c. provision of supervisors/mentors from the partner institution
d. assurance that the workplace is a conducive and safe learning environment;
Expenses in securing partnerships, such as the travel expense of the School Partnerships
Focal Person and the Immersion Teacher, shall be charged to the school’s local funds or
MOOE. Subject to availability of funds, travel expenses of learners to Work Immersion venue
will also be charged to MOOE and other funds, the details of which shall be provided in a
separate set of Guidelines. Expenses for Immersion Venue rental, utilities, and/or other direct
or incidental expenses of the Partner Institution shall not be allowed.
Schools and students shall not be asked to pay the SHS Partner Institution for any Work
Immersion activity conducted. Fees for Work Immersion must only be set after consultation
with parents.
The partnerships shall be governed by existing laws and DepEd issuances such as, but not
limited to the following:
a. DepEd Order No. 39, s. 2009 on the commercialization of schools, which expressly
prohibits the appearance of any form of institutional endorsement by the DepEd for any
commercial product or service within the school premises in exchange for any SHS-industiy
partnership
b. DepEd Order No. 6, s. 2012, which expressly prohibits all forms and manner of cooperation
or partnership with the tobacco industry in all areas of the country
c. DepEd Order No. 40, s. 2012 entitled “Child Protection Policy” (Policy and Guidelines on
Protecting Children in School from Abuse, Violence, Exploitation, Discrimination, Bullying and
other forms of Abuse)
d. DepEd Order No. 80, s. 2012 entitled “Strengthening the integration of breastfeeding
education in the curriculum, setting up and sustaining the operation of lactation stations in

schools, administrators and teachers
j. The Civil Code, including but not limited to, provisions on Obligations and Contracts and
Quasi-Delicts. Article 2176 provides: “Whoever by act or omission causes damage to another,
there being fault or negligence, is obliged to pay for the damage done. Such fault or
negligence, if there is no pre-existing contractual relation between the parties, is called a
quasidelict and is governed by the provisions of this Chapter.” Article 2180 provides in part:
“The obligation imposed by article 2176 is demandable not only for one’s own acts or
omissions, but also for those persons for whom one is responsible.”)
k. Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) and Technical Education and Skills
Development Authority (TESDA) issuances, whenever applicable
The duties and responsibilities of SHS personnel shall be reflected in their Office Performance
Commitment Review Form (OPCRF) or Individual Performance Commitment Review Form
(IPCRF) for DepEd Schools only.
Private Schools and non-DepEd schools may devise a scheme on how to remunerate
teachers assigned as School Partnerships Focal Person/Immersion Teacher.
Table 1 shows different Work Immersion delivery models that schools may choose from based
on their needs and resources. All these models take into consideration the number of Work
Immersion hours, learner’s purpose and needs, school capabilities and compliance to the
TESDA, DOLE, and DepEd Work Immersion venue guidelines.
However, if these models do not fit a specific situation or concern, regions may design their
own delivery model. Novel/unique deliveiy modes should be approved by the Regional Office.
Proposals describing the unique delivery model should include in their justifications the work
immersion hours, the learners’ purposes and needs, and the school’s partnership
arrangements.
For all models, the Work Immersion Curriculum Guide (CG) in Annex A shall be followed. The
number of hours allotted for Work Immersion Proper, which is Part II of the CG, may vary
based on the model to be chosen by the learners and the school.
Below is a summary of the Work Immersion delivery models and their description. For more
details, Annex E provides descriptions of the models, the learners’ purposes and needs, the
school’s partnership arrangements, and Work Immersion delivery options.
The successful implementation of Work Immersion will depend on the strong collaboration,
support, and commitment of the school personnel and Partner Institution. These personnel
