AN ANALYTICAL STUDY ON THE PERCEPTIONS OF GRADUATES ON THE CURRICULUM OF THE CEU COLLEGE OF NURSING The modern concept of the curriculum isits dynamism, veering away from the traditional view that it is a mere listing of subjects taught in school. More broadly, it comprises “the total learning experiences” in the education process (Bilbao, p. 9). Along this concept, the study is proposed on the dynamic change ordered by the Commission on Higher Education to upgrade the nursing education curriculum in the country through CHED Memo No.

5 series of 2008, setting new policies/standards and increasing Bachelor of Nursing to a 5-year course from its previous 4-year program. Drawing from perceptions of graduates before and after the CHED Memo NO. 5 ( School Years 2005-2010), the strengths and weaknesses of the old curriculum (SY2005-2009) and the new (SY 2009-2010) can be assessed (Simbulan, p.1). The proposed study will gather data on perceptions of CEU College of Nursing graduates, who passed the Nursing board examination, and have been employed as professional nurses in the country or abroad.

Their opinions will be drawn not only from their years of education, but the actual application of their knowledge, competence, and commitment to the profession. Evaluation research shall be applied to determine whether the CHED social intervention produced the intended results, using the method of survey and interview of respondents drawn randomly from the list of practicing CEU nursing graduate-professionals. Response variables consist in the relevance and effectiveness of (a) the required general education subjects (b) theoretical foundation and fundamentals of nursing practice, and (c) apprenticeship program.

Survey instruments shall be farmed out and retrieved by way of e-mail or letters through the assistance of the CEU Alumni Foundation. Both qualitative and quantitative analysis shall be done, utilizing survey and open interview data results. To ensure success, pilot testing shall be conducted on an initial batch of respondents, refining instruments and process as needed.
