MANILA, Philippines — The Commission on Higher Education has lifted a moratorium on new undergraduate nursing programs that was imposed in 2011 to help keep the quality of nursing graduates up.

 

The moratorium was put in place to address a boom in nursing, hotel and restaurant management and information technology courses at the time that the CHED said would lead to graduates who did not receive quality training and education.

 

"Yesterday, the commission en banc, after a very thorough review and study of the moratorium on nursing, decided to lift the moratorium on nursing based on an exhaustive discussion," CHED Chairman Prospero "Popoy" De Vera III said in a briefing on Wednesday.
