STI's 4Cs



In addition to our nine core values, every STIer is molded to grow in the 4Cs: Character, Critical Thinking, Communication, and Change-Adeptness.



Having embraced the learner-centered approach as its paradigm for teaching and learning, STI seeks to provide every student with a holistic development through technology-enhanced, student-centered active learning.


The STI Learning System strives to offer learning opportunities that allow students to maximize their potential and grow into intellectual, emotional, physical, and social maturity so that they will be able to thrive in a continuously changing, technology-driven world.


Student formation is also important in the STI way of educating its learners. An STIer is further defined into 4Cs: Character, Critical thinker, Communicator, and Change-adept.

  • An STIer is a person of character. An STIer’s response, regardless of circumstances, is consistently virtuous.
  • An STIer is a critical thinker. An STIer discerns through open-minded analysis and challenges one’s beliefs to further improve creative ideas.
  • An STIer is an effective communicator. An STIer communicates to understand and be understood. He/She recognizes the emotion behind the information read or heard and expresses his/her own emotion when giving information, may it be verbal or written.
  • An STIer is change-adept. An STIer utilizes his/her ability to adapt and manage when a need for transformation or transition arises, to utilize his/ her capabilities to its full extent, and build the capacity of the community where he/she belongs.


HISTORY of the STI Network



From its humble beginnings on August 21, 1983 as a computer training center with only two campuses, STI now has campuses all over the Philippines and has diversified into ICT-enhanced programs in Information Technology, Business and Management, Tourism and Hospitality Management, Engineering, and Arts and Sciences.



It all started when four visionaries conceptualized setting up a training center to fill very specific manpower needs.


It was in the early ‘80s when four entrepreneurs — Augusto C. Lagman, Herman T. Gamboa, Benjamin A. Santos, and Edgar H. Sarte — came together to set up Systems Technology Institute (STI), a training center that delivers basic programming education to professionals and students who want to learn this new skill.


Systems Technology Institute’s name came from countless brainstorming sessions among the founders, perhaps from Sarte’s penchant for three-letter acronyms from the companies he managed at the time.


The first two schools were inaugurated on August 21, 1983 in Buendia, Makati and in España, Manila, and offered basic computer programming courses. With a unique and superior product on their hands, it was not difficult to expand the franchise through the founders’ business contacts. A year after the first two schools opened, the franchise grew to include STI Binondo, Cubao, and Taft.


A unique value proposition spelled the difference for the STI brand then: “First We’ll Teach You, Then We’ll Hire You.” Through its unique Guaranteed Hire Program (GHP), all qualified graduates were offered jobs by one of the founders’ companies, or through their contacts in the industry.


The schools’ 1st batch of graduates, all 11 of them, were hired by Systems Resources Incorporated. And through GHP, more qualified STI graduates found themselves working in their field of interest straight out of school.


No one among the four founders imagined that the Systems Technology Institute would become a college, or would grow to have over 100 schools across the country. But it did, all because of its unique value proposition, the synergy between the founders and their personnel, and the management’s faithfulness to quality.


A long way since its birth, STI’s thrust has permeated right into the core of the globally competitive market — it has transcended beyond ICT and beyond education, addressing the need for job-ready graduates.
