Although open and distance learning has been documented to be introduced
in the Philippines way back in 1952 through the Farmers School-on-the-Air

development of distance education, much so of the e-learning environment
lags far behind more industrialized countries due to a relatively lack of

interoperability of eLearning systems, encourage collaboration in the

vocational and middle-level education.
