The primary purpose of this study is to investigate the lived experiences of automotive technology
instructors at Palompon Institute of Technology. A phenomenology research design was used in this study.
This was participated by industry workers and instructors of the Palompon Institute of Technology. Findings
revealed that teachers of any vocational or technical level always keep in mind that the welfare of their
students is a top priority, so much so that they can work under pressure. They can cope with whatever
facilities are available to them. Though availability, adequacy and utilization tend to be keeling on the
negative side, the instructors found solutions to every problem met along the way at their level and strata.
The perceived effects of students' on their performance when they went to the real world of work were
summed up to not being competent, skills and training were mismatched with the industry requirements
and exposure to essential tools so much so that the responses from the students'/graduates' correlated
perfectly to their being culture shock, having low or poor self-esteem and poor work ethics. Vocational
education and training at the tertiary level can ease the transition from school to work while supplying
employers with trained workers. Dual vocational training, which combines structured learning on-the-job
with classroom training, leads to certified skills relevant to employers and is portable in the labor market.
