The Philippine Teachers Professionalization Act of 1994 corresponds to which Republic Act number?

• A. RA 7686
• B. RA 7836
• C. RA 7722
• D. RA 7798

Answer: (B)

The main idea here is to know which Republic Act title corresponds to the Philippine Teachers Professionalization Act of 1994. That act is Republic Act 7836. It established teaching as a regulated profession, setting the framework for licensure and ongoing professional development to raise the quality of the teaching workforce. In practice, this means teachers must meet specified qualifications and pass licensure requirements to practice, aligning teaching with other licensed professions and providing a path for professional growth. The other numbers point to different laws with unrelated topics, so they don’t match the act that specifically professionalizes teaching.
