STI History
From its humble beginnings on August 21, 1983 as a computer training center
with only two campuses, STI now has campuses all over the Philippines and has
diversified into ICT-enhanced programs in Information Technology, Business and
Management, Tourism and Hospitality Management, Engineering, and Arts and
Sciences.

It all started when four visionaries conceptualized setting up a training center to


fill very specific manpower needs.

It was in the early ‘80s when Augusto C. Lagman, Herman T.


Gamboa, Benjamin A. Santos, and Edgar H. Sarte — four entrepreneurs came
together to set up Systems Technology Institute (STI), a training center that delivers
basic programming education to professionals and students who want to learn this new
skill.

Systems Technology Institute’s name came from countless brainstorming


sessions among the founders, perhaps from Sarte’s penchant for three-letter acronyms
from the companies he managed at the time.

The first two schools were inaugurated in August 21, 1983 in Buendia, Makati
and in España, Manila, and offered basic computer programming courses. With a
unique and superior product on their hands, it was not difficult to expand the franchise
through the founders’ business contacts. A year after the first two schools opened, the
franchise grew to include STI Binondo, Cubao, and Taft.

A unique value proposition spelled the difference for the STI brand then: “First
We’ll Teach You, Then We’ll Hire You.” Through its unique Guaranteed Hire Program
(GHP), all qualified graduates were offered jobs by one of the founders’ companies, or
through their contacts in the industry.

The schools’ 1st batch of graduates, all 11 of them, were hired by Systems
Resources Incorporated. And through GHP, more qualified STI graduates found
themselves working in their field of interest straight out of school.

Aim high with STI!


History
No one among the four founders imagined that the Systems Technology Institute
would become a college, or would grow to have over 100 schools across the country.
But it did, all because of its unique value proposition, the synergy between the founders
and their personnel, and the management’s faithfulness to quality.

A long way since its birth, STI’s thrust has permeated right into the core of
the globally competitive market — it has transcended beyond ICT and beyond
education, addressing the need for job-ready graduates.

Aim high with STI!
