‼️POSTPONED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE

Advancing Quality, Compliance, and Stronger Youth Governance 📚✨

The National Youth Commission invites training providers, partner institutions, and concerned stakeholders to the National Orientation on SK Mandatory and Continuing Training (SKMCT) Accreditation Guidelines on Tuesday, September 29, 2026, from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM, via Zoom and Facebook Live.

As the demand for relevant, responsive, and high-quality training programs for Sangguniang Kabataan officials continues to grow, it is essential to uphold clear standards and consistent accreditation processes.

The orientation aims to provide participants with a comprehensive understanding of the SKMCT accreditation guidelines, procedures, documentary requirements, quality standards, and the respective roles and responsibilities of training providers and stakeholders.

Through this activity, participants are expected to be better equipped to design and implement compliant, relevant, and quality-assured training programs that strengthen the competencies, leadership, and governance capabilities of SK officials nationwide.

Together, let us uphold excellence in capacity development, reinforce accountability, and ensure that every SK official has access to meaningful and responsive learning opportunities that contribute to stronger youth leadership and better local governance.

📢 MONITORING AND EVALUATION (M&E) 2027!

READ | In reference with the SK Advisory 2026-P008. The National Youth Commission, through the SK Web Portal, is opening the 2027 Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) System for the implementation of the Local Youth Development Plan (LYDP), Comprehensive Barangay Youth Development Plan (CBYDP), and Annual Barangay Youth Investment Program (ABYIP).

As part of the preparation for the end-of-term submission and assessment of the current Sangguniang Kabataan administration, all SK-funded Programs, Projects, and Activities (PPAs) and General Administrative Programs (GAPs) implemented during 2024 (PPAs Only), 2025 (PPAs Only), and 2026 (PPAs and GAPs) must be encoded in the SK Web Portal, including those that were not previously submitted or were submitted late.

This serves as the official consolidation of accomplishments and will help ensure that every eligible activity undertaken during the current SK term is properly documented and reflected in the end-of-term monitoring and evaluation.

In addition, the 2027 M&E is now open for the encoding of PPAs and GAPs implemented from January 2026 onwards, allowing SK officials to record their accomplishments in real time until the completion of their term. Early encoding is highly encouraged to ensure accurate reporting, facilitate monitoring, and minimize delays during the final submission period.

⏰ Deadline of all M&E Encoding: September 30, 2026

Together, let us strengthen transparent, accountable, and evidence-based youth governance through timely and complete reporting!
