Commissioner Dr. Ethel Agnes Pascua-Valenzuela delivered the opening keynote, setting the tone for the one-day conference that gathered educators, administrators, and thought leaders from across the Philippines and abroad.

“AI is no longer the future. It is actually here—from adaptive learning platforms to virtual laboratories,” Valenzuela said in her keynote address.

Valenzuela also highlighted the importance of supporting technology-enabled, future-ready education systems that respond to the evolving needs of learners and the workforce.

“We are living in a time where technology is reshaping the way we teach and learn, and with these changes come an extraordinary opportunity to unlock new ways of learning that empower both educators and learners to thrive in a rapidly evolving world,” she added.
