What is NSTP?

Republic Act 9163 enabled the establishment of National Service Training Program for Tertiary Level students with
an aim to promote civic consciousness among the youth and inculcate in them the spirit of nationalism and
advance their involvement in public and civic affairs.

NSTP is a program designed to develop the youth’s physical, moral, spiritual, intellectual, and social well-being
and promote defense preparedness and ethics of service while undergoing training in any of its three program
components. Its various components are specially designed to enhance the youth’s active contribution to the
general welfare.

What are its three program components?

The NSTP has three components which are as follows:

i. Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (ROTC)

A program institutionalized under Sections 38 and 39 of Republic Act No. 7077 designed to provide military
training to tertiary level students in order to motivate, train, organize and mobilize them for national defense
preparedness.

ii. Literacy Training Service (LTS)

A program designed to train students to become teachers of literacy and numeracy skills to school children, out of
school youth, and other segments of society in need of their service.

iii. Civic Welfare Training Service (CWTS)

It is composed of programs or activities contributory to the general
welfare and the betterment of life for the members of the community or the enhancement of its facilities, especially
those devoted to improving health, education, environment, entrepreneurship, safety, recreation and morals of the
citizenry.
Who are required to complete the NSTP?

Students of any baccalaureate degree course or at least two-year technical vocational courses in public and
private educational institutions shall be required to complete one of the NSTP components as requisite for
graduation.

Exemptions only apply to:

i. Students who have already taken NSTP from a prior degree completed;
ii. Transferees and shiftees who have completed NSTP prior to transferring or shifting; and
iii. Foreign students or aliens

How much time is needed to complete the NSTP?

Each of the NSTP program components shall be undertaken for an academic period of two semesters (NSTP 1
and 2) or an equivalent one-semester integrated (NSTP 1-2) course. The allotted time for NSTP classes per
semester is 54 – 90 hours.

The whole NSTP program weighs six units and should be taken for two semesters, three units each semester.

How are the NSTP classes structured?

Student enrolled in the first semester of NSTP shall undergo a Common Module phase which will focus on:
citizenship training; drug education; disaster awareness, preparedness, and management; environmental
protection; and other national security concerns. Upon completion of the Common Module, the student must select
the specific program component that he/she will pursue.
I allowed to take NSTP 2 before NSTP 1?

No. NSTP 1 is a prerequisite for NSTP 2.

Am I allowed to take different program components for my NSTP 1 and 2?

No, you have to take six (units) of the same component to complete NSTP. According to the Implementing Rules
and Regulations of the National Service Training Program as mentioned in Rule III, Section 4, you are “required to
complete one (1) NSTP component of [your] choice as a graduation requirement.”

Am I allowed to take the same program component but from different colleges? For
example, if I took CWTS 1 in CSSP, can I take CWTS 2 in CHK?

No. As a University policy, NSTP 1 and 2 should be taken in the same college.

What activities are expected from NSTP 2 classes?

NSTP 2 classes are mainly concerned with community engagement with the help of partner communities and
organizations. CWTS and LTS students are required to conduct civic welfare and literacy activities or projects as
part of the required 40-64 hours of community engagement.
