RECAP
You are now in G-12 and therefore you are expected to be equipped with all the skills you gained from your different
subjects. Let’s recall the 3 classifications of subjects in Senior High School. Yes, they are: Core subjects; Applied
subjects; and Specialized subjects. Work Immersion is one (1) of the nine (9) specialized subjects and it is also
allotted 80 hours just like other subjects.
LESSON
Are you excited for your Work Immersion? Today you will read and learn the content of some sections of
DepEd Order No. 30, s. 2017, DepEd No. 39, s. 2018 and the latest Guidelines for Work Immersion Implementation
during crisis situation found in Memorandum DM-CI-2020-00085 from the Office of the Undersecretary for Curriculum
and Instruction.
What does Work Immersion mean?

According to DepEd Order No. 40, series of 2015, Work Immersion refers to the part of the Senior High
School (SHS) Curriculum consisting of 80 hours of hands-on experience or work simulation which the Grades 11 and
12 students will undergo to expose them to the actual workplace setting and to enrich the competencies provided by
the school under the supervision of the School Head and the designated personnel of the Partner.”
The Department of Education issued DepEd Order no. 30 s. 2017 entitled Guidelines for Work Immersion
which is the basis for the implementation of Work Immersion in all Senior High Schools (SHSs). So let us get oriented
with the selected sections of DepEd Order no. 30 s. 2017. Read it thoroughly.
Section 1: Rationale
One of the goals of the K to 12 Education Program is to develop in learners the competencies, work ethics,
and values relevant to pursuing further education and/or joining the world of work. To achieve greater congruence
with the basic education and the nation’s development targets, Work Immersion, a required subject, has been
integrated in the curriculum. This subject will provide learners with the following opportunities:
1. to become familiar with the work place
2. for employment simulation
3. to apply their competencies in areas of specialization/applied subject’s in
authentic work environments
To achieve those objectives, Work Immersion is therefore a requirement for graduation from secondary
education. Learners are immersed on actual work environments such as workshops, offices and laboratories in which
their prior training is relevant. But this is given clarification on DepEd Order No. 39, s. 2018.
Though the intention of Work Immersion is to provide SHS learners with opportunities to become familiar
with the workplace, simulate employment, and to apply their competencies in areas of specialization/applied subjects
in actual work environments, DepEd recognizes other options that may equally prepare learners for all curriculum
exits.
 For all tracks, schools may opt to devise unique delivery model with a minimum of 80 and a maximum of
320 hours following the Curriculum Guide.
 All TVL learners shall have completed the required learning competencies of a particular specialization
before Work Immersion.
 The nominal duration of specialization for TVL shall be considered in crafting the delivery model of the
school.
For other tracks:
 Accounting, Business and Management (ABM) learners may have Business Enterprise Simulation
 Humanities and Social Science Strand (HUMSS) learners may take Culminating Activity
 Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) learners may take Research/Capstone Project
 General Academic Strand (GAS) learners may take Research/Capstone Project or Culminating Activity
 For Sports Track, learners may take Apprenticeship (off – campus)
 For Arts and Design Track, learners may take Performing Arts for Production or Exhibit for Arts Production
However, due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, the learners’ physical attendance in school is prohibited.
Consequently, the implementation of Work Immersion given above is greatly affected. Hence, the Office of
Undersecretary set another guideline stipulated in Memorandum DM-CI-2020-00085 specifically for this school year
2020-2021. Varying suggested activities for all tracks guided by Most Essential Competencies (MELCs) are provided.
The activities in all tracks can be performed in different schemes which include in-school, home-based,
community-based, and school industry partnership.
Whatever scheme is used, all lessons and activities of Work Immersion or its equivalent shall be delivered using
different modalities applicable to the specific track, strand, learners and schools.
