TWO members of parliament in the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao on Tuesday, October 17, 2023, have filed a measure seeking to establish a teachers’ continuing education program that would allow educators in the Barmm public school system to keep up with national and international trends and standards of instruction.MPs Amir Mawallil and Rasol Mitmug, Jr. filed Parliament Bill No.
Mitmug said the bill, once enacted into law, allows teachers to learn about innovative teaching methods, technologies and educational tools they can apply in their classroom practices and enhance the learning experience of students.“Continuing education also upskills educators, which they can use to apply for promotions at work. This opens them to a world of opportunities for career growth and advancement, which very much impacts their livelihood and quality of life,” Mitmug said.
