STI has long been a pioneer in advancing education in the Philippines. Two years ahead of the full implementation of the K-12 program in 2016, STI became the largest provider of senior high school education in the country, offering Grades 11 and 12. The institution has also transitioned to an outcome-based education (OBE) curriculum, ensuring that students are equipped with the skills, knowledge, and qualities needed to succeed in a globalized world.
