These are evident in distinctions recently granted by two respected organizations.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the 2018 ASEAN Corporate Governance Scorecard\n(ACGS), the university was the lone school recognized as a top-performing\npublicly-listed company in the Philippines. FEU was conferred two Arrow\ncitations by the Institute of Corporate Directors at the ACGS assessment\nceremony. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">FEU was also recognized by the Philippine Association of\nPractitioners of Student Affairs and Services (PAPSAS) as a standard for best\npractices in the management of student formation programs in the country. The\nuniversity was lauded during the benchmarking session of a specialist\ncertificate course on student affairs and services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt is an honor for us to be entrusted with these valuable awards.\nWe continuously work toward promoting a world-class learning environment for\nour students and these are the fruits of our labor. This assures us that we\ncontinue to uphold the university\u2019s core values of fortitude, excellence, and\nuprightness,\u201d shares Dr. Michael Alba, FEU President.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These accolades are a reflection of FEU\u2019s commitment to setting\nthe standards for academic institutions. Since being founded in 1928, the\nuniversity has firmly implemented a culture geared toward quality and\naccessible education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This culture is rooted in extensive industry partnerships with\nmore than 1,000 partners, 30% of which belong to the top 1,000 corporations.\nThese tie-ups include seminars on work ethic and industry trends, curriculum\nreview, internships, and university-to-work transition programs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the same time, FEU fosters an inclusive environment where\nstudents are made to feel welcome. They can enjoy all-gender restrooms, \u201ca no\nhaircut policy\u201d, school attire options instead of a uniform, and a multi-faith\nroom. The university also has international linkages with universities in South\nKorea, Malaysia, Singapore, and Indonesia to expose students to different\ncultures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">FEU believes that a well-rounded education backed by an inclusive\natmosphere is the key to producing competitive graduates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Throughout its history, FEU has developed business tycoons,\nambassadors, and justices of the Supreme Court and other judicial bodies. Other\nnotable alumni include leaders in the private and public sectors, finance\nwizards, acclaimed physicians, nurses, educators, athletes, artists and theater\nand media luminaries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe want to uphold our legacy of producing outstanding alumni and\nthese new citations prove that we are on the right track. We will continue\ninnovating our services to sustain our standing as one of the country\u2019s top\neducational institutions,\u201d ends Dr. Alba.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At the 2018 ASEAN Corporate Governance Scorecard (ACGS), the university was the lone school recognized as a top-performing publicly-listed company in the Philippines.
