PPSC Rolls Out 2026 Reforms, Expands Cyber and Chemical Security Training

The Philippine Public Safety College (PPSC) of the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) is rolling out key reforms in 2026, focusing on learner-centered education, expanded cyber and chemical security training, and upgraded training facilities to strengthen public safety education nationwide.

At the DILG Kapihan yesterday, PPSC Vice President for Academics PBGen Vert T. Chavez (Ret.) said the College will transition to ISO 21001, an education management system emphasizing ethical, legally compliant, and student-centered instruction, aimed at improving curriculum, teaching, assessment, and research.

Training programs have also expanded to meet emerging security challenges. The National Virtual Training Center (NVTC) now offers basic and advanced Chemical Security Officers Courses, while the National Cyber Training Institute (NCTI) has produced over 300 graduates from its Cyber Orientation, Cyber Intermediate, and Cyber Leadership Executive courses for division-level leaders and above.

To support these programs, PPSC will build a four-story academic building, a six-story cyber training facility, and complete two additional buildings at the Canlubang campus.

Aligned with the national focus on ethics and discipline, PPSC continues to implement its Character and Competency Framework, integrating leadership development across all training levels.

As the premier training institution for the PNP, BFP, and BJMP. PPSC has produced 487,216 graduates since 1993. It graduated over 11,200 students in 2025 and expects more than 11,300 this year, reinforcing its role in producing capable, ethical, and responsive public safety officers.
