Abstract This study comprehensively evaluated the effectiveness of the Schools Division Office (SDO) Makati City's Two-Week Learning Enhancement Program implemented for Alternative Learning System (ALS) conditional passers following the 2024 Accreditation and Equivalency (A&E) examination. Using a pre-post experimental design, all 95 conditional passers from 23 educational institutions across Makati City participated in the intensive remedial intervention conducted from June 23 to July 4, 2025. The program targeted least mastered competencies identified from A&E examination results, employing a systematic five-phase implementation process. Assessment utilized a standardized 100-point framework divided equally between pre-test (50 points) and post-test (50 points) evaluations across four learning strands: LS1 Communication Skills, LS2 Scientific Thinking, LS3 Mathematics, and LS4-6 Life Skills & Digital. Final certification scores were calculated as the average of pre-test and post-test performance, with the 60% national ALS passing threshold determining program completion success. Results demonstrated exceptional program effectiveness with 100% of participants (95 out of 95) achieving the 60% certification threshold, representing complete transformation from conditional to certified status. Participants showed average gains of 10.8 points (21.6% improvement) from baseline performance. The program's systematic approach, intensive daily monitoring, and differentiated instruction contributed to universal learning improvements and certification success across all participants. These findings provide compelling evidence for the effectiveness of structured, time-bound enhancement interventions in alternative education settings, supporting implementation across educational divisions nationwide while maintaining realistic expectations for program outcomes.
