POTENTIAL INSTITUTIONAL SUCCESS INDEX (PISI) FOR TEACHERS’ BOARD EXAMINATION

Abstract

The study delved into the Potential Institutional Success Index (PISI) for Teachers’ Board Examination. It sought to identify predictions of the performance in the Licensure Examination for Teachers (LET), the factor loadings and communalities, and the relationship between the identified factors and average LET performance for three years. Using the factor analysis and secondary data sources of the LET result from the Teacher Education Program of Surigao Del Sur State University (SDSSU)-Main Campus, the findings revealed that the potential success institution index for the Teachers’ Board Examination covers several factors comprising quality assurance, demographic profile, learning environment, management support, students competence, teachers’ competences, students’ readiness, and institutional resource index. Findings reveal a significant relationship between the LET result, teachers’ competence, and institutional resource factors. The management of the Teacher Education program should adhere to the recruitment of the best faculty members and the provision of adequate and relevant learning resources that will optimize learning outcomes and board performance in the LET.
