This study explores the landscape of professional development (PD) programs for educators in the Philippines through a systematic literature review and document analysis. It examines frameworks, implementation strategies, challenges, and outcomes of PD initiatives. Findings reveal that effective PD programs exhibit sustained duration, active learning opportunities, and alignment with curricula, resulting in improved teacher practices and student outcomes. However, challenges such as funding constraints, limited resources, and inadequate monitoring systems hinder program effectiveness. Recommendations include enhancing collaboration between stakeholders, addressing funding gaps, and implementing robust monitoring mechanisms. By prioritizing evidence-based strategies and continuous improvement, stakeholders can foster a culture of lifelong learning and professional growth among Filipino educators, ultimately enhancing the quality of education nationwide.
