The study was conducted to develop a training resource for Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW) NC II. Its primary objective was to explore the development process of a training resource for SMAW II and to evaluate its acceptability based on expert feedback in terms of format, learning content, presentation and organization, relevance, and functionality. Guided by the ISD Model and the ADDIE framework, the development process followed four essential stages: a) Needs analysis, which involved identifying and assessing learning gaps and required competencies based on the K–12 Basic Education Curriculum for Technology and Livelihood Education (SMAW for Grades 11-12), TESDA’s SMAW NC II Training Regulations, Welding Procedure Specification requirements, and relevant industry demands; b) Design setting, where clear objectives were formulated, and the content was thoughtfully selected and structured, including activities and feedback strategies aligned with the learning goals; c) Material development, which focused on producing training resources anchored on the design and implementation blueprint; and d) Evaluation, wherein subject matter experts reviewed and validated the materials to ensure quality, relevance, and instructional value. The evaluation revealed that the resource training was Highly Acceptable, with mean scores of 4.83 for format, 4.93 for Content, 4.78 for presentation and organization, 4.96 for relevance, and 4.90 for functionality. With an acceptability mean score of 4.88, interpreted as "Highly Acceptable", the experts’ evaluation affirms the training resource’s effectiveness, relevance, and appropriateness for its intended purpose.
