Cebu Technological University (CTU) anchored its Fiscal Year 2026 performance planning on FY 2025 outcomes as it concluded its three-day FY 2025 Fourth Quarter Full-Time Delivery Unit (FDU) Performance Review and Performance Planning and Commitment Meeting for FY 2026 on January 16 in Mabolo, Cebu City.
University officials and campus leaders reviewed institutional and campus-level performance for FY 2025 to assess accomplishments, identify areas for improvement, and reaffirm the university’s collective commitment to its 2026 vision.
In his keynote message, Dr. Pet Roey L. Pascual, OIC-University President, highlighted the balance of vision and action in defining the university’s strategic direction.
“Vision without work is but a dream. What we are doing now is visioning for 2026, but we have to work. That’s why we have our movers and change makers today,” Dr. Pascual said.
He further emphasized that planning for 2026 must be guided by a careful review of past performance, noting that institutional direction should be grounded in evidence rather than aspiration alone.
“We have to look back at what has been done. That’s why, in this activity, we start with what has been accomplished in 2025,” he added.
The three-day activity convened key university officials, campus directors, deans, planning and budget officers, and human resource personnel to collectively assess institutional performance, identify areas for improvement, and align strategies and commitments for the coming fiscal year.
Day one opened with the fourth quarter FDU performance review, featuring the campus-level physical report presented by Arch. Leo Edwin Mutia, who addressed transparency in operations and measurable outcomes.
Afterwards, the Agency Performance Review (APR) was presented per indicator. Each campus highlighted the percentage of first-time licensure exam passers, the employment rate of graduates from two years prior, the enrollment of undergraduate students in priority programs identified by the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) and the Regional Development Council (RDC), and the accreditation status of undergraduate programs.
Further discussion centered on campus-level budget performance, with each campus reporting its financial utilization for the review period, as reviewed by Dr. Emma R. Sacan, chief administrative officer for Finance.
Campuses that recorded budget utilization rates exceeding 96 percent were encouraged to share best practices, while those with lower utilization rates discussed operational challenges and factors that affected target attainment.
Building on the review of FY 2025 performance, the second day of the activity focused on performance planning and commitment-setting for Fiscal Year 2026. The session opened with an orientation to the university’s Strategic Plan for 2025–2030 and a presentation of consolidated targets, with particular emphasis on progress in gender and development (GAD) mainstreaming. This was led by Dr. Jana Gloria F. Almerino, the University Strategic Performance Management System (SPMS) Planning Officer.
To further align institutional direction, Planning Officer II Ms. Jhomae B. Isoto presented the newly adopted Vision, Mission, Goals, Outcomes, and Core Values (VMGOC), along with the CTU 5.0 Pathway Balanced Scorecard. The frameworks were presented as tools for aligning campus initiatives and monitoring institutional performance toward long-term goals.
Dr. Rosein A. Ancheta Jr., Vice President for Production, Extension, and Resource Generation, emphasized that institutional success requires both clear direction and consistent execution of programs aligned with strategic priorities.
Meanwhile, Mr. Irvin A. Narsico discussed the strategic plan’s six pillars: University Leadership, Academic Excellence, Impactful Innovation, Resource Mobilization, Student Empowerment, and Internationalization, as key themes guiding the VMGO and institutional priorities for the year.
During the afternoon session, the university’s accomplishments for CY 2025 was presented based on the Office Performance Commitment and Review (OPCR) and Operational Plan (OP), followed by the President’s 2026 OPCR and the cascading of targets of the vice presidents.
Day three opened with Dr. Anthony S. Ilano, CTU Carmen Campus Director, highlighting key discussions, shared insights, campus challenges, and agreed strategies to guide the next steps.
CTU’s Major Final Outputs (MFOs) were presented by selected campus directors, providing an overview of the university’s core service areas. MFO 1 on Higher Education Services and MFO 2 on Advanced Education Services were presented by Dr. Charmaine P. Antecristo of CTU Moalboal, while MFO 3 on Research Services was discussed by Dr. Eingilbert C. Benolirao of CTU Argao. MFO 4 on Technical Advisory and Extension Services was presented by Dr. Jonita V. Literatus of CTU San Francisco.
Following this, Dr. Carla A. Abaquita, CTU Tuburan Campus Director, presented the CY 2026 OPCR targets for administration and finance, driven by compliance, efficiency, and financial discipline.
Anchored on FY 2025 outcomes, CTU finalized its performance targets and strategies to guide the implementation of its FY 2026 commitments across all campuses.
