Who We Are

The Government-Academe-Industry-Network Inc. or GAIN is composed of government representatives, academicians, and industry practitioners, who have come together in synergy and strength to ensure the global competitiveness of Philippine graduates and workforce.

Since its incorporation in 2016, GAIN has been at the forefront of promoting the adoption of international standards for communication and digital skills of the Philippine graduates and workforce through its national conferences and collaboration with various sectors.

GAIN’s massive awareness campaign has prompted a Senate Inquiry on the decline in English Proficiency of Filipino Students, the need to assess present curricula in elementary and high school, and encourage trainings and other learning approaches.

It has likewise inspired Sen. Pia Cayetano’s Senate Bill no. 62 which seeks to establish an Education Roadmap that shall provide a common national policy on education to enhance global competitiveness.

Rallying the education sector to the cause, GAIN events have also served as a catalyst for the launch of the National Roadmap for Global Competitiveness in Communication Skills (NRGCCS) by the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) with the goal of adopting the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR) for Languages as a recognized metric for communicative competitiveness.

Aside from CEFR, GAIN also pushes for the adoption of other national and international standards such as the Philippine Qualifications Framework: a quality assured national system for the development, recognition and award of qualifications to the learners and workers of the country; and the ASEAN Qualifications Reference Framework: a common reference framework that enables comparisons of education qualifications across participating ASEAN Member States.

​​

Recognizing that the jobs of the future require a new set of skills, GAIN organizes a series of Masterclasses on the following topics:

World Standards of Technology such as the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) - the most popular digital standards framework in the USA, and DigComp – the Official Digital Framework of the European Union;

Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs), Certifications, and Free Online sources for upskilling of managers, employees, faculty, and students;

And lastly, the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR), the most widely used framework used in teaching and assessment for language proficiency used by 120 countries all over the world.

To gather a stronger collective voice in echoing the adoption of international standards, GAIN has partnered with renowned organizations from the Industry and the Academe, to collaborate on various initiatives including research on English proficiency and the competitiveness of the Filipino talent.

GAIN also collaborates with various organizations and sectors on research, specifically on topics of English proficiency and competitiveness of the Filipino talent.​
