This study evaluated the management of Technical Vocational Education and Training (TVET) Institutions in Baguio-Benguet, focusing on their compliance with audit requirements. A descriptive research design was employed, using a questionnaire to gather data from 172 respondents (11 administrators and 161 trainers) across various TVET institutes. Findings indicated high compliance with audit requirements for institution-based registered programs. However, respondents categorized the challenges encountered in compliance as "much serious," highlighting a significant need for interventions. This high compliance was attributed to TESDA's consistent monitoring and TVET's competency-based approach, aligning training with industry needs. Conversely, the perceived seriousness of challenges stemmed from industry-driven TVET programs that involved various stakeholders, from policy to delivery. The study's descriptive nature is a limitation, as it does not establish direct causal links. Implications suggest that while monitoring is effective, targeted interventions are crucial to address compliance difficulties, enhancing the quality and relevance of TVET programs in the region.
