STI College or formerly known as Systems Technology Institute is a network of private colleges and senior high schools in the Philippines, with over 60 campuses nationwide. It offers programs in fields such as information technology, hospitality and tourism, multimedia arts, business and accountancy, computer engineering, and criminology.
STI operates on a semestral academic calendar, similar to that of many Philippine higher education institutions.
Ownership
STI College is owned by STI Education Services Group, Inc. (STI ESG), a subsidiary of STI Education Systems Holdings, Inc. The latter serves as the education investment arm of the Tanco Group, headed by Dr. Eusebio H. Tanco.
STI Education Systems Holdings, Inc. has several subsidiaries, including STI ESG, STI West Negros University (STI WNU), Information and Communications Technology Academy (iACADEMY), Attenborough Holdings Corporation, and Neschester Corporation.
Tanco is also affiliated with Maestro Holdings, Inc., formerly STI Investments, Inc.[1]
In February 2024, STI announced a term sheet with the Philippine School of Business Administration (PSBA) for the acquisition of its operations.[2]
History
STI was established in 1983 as Systems Technology Institute, a computer training center founded by Augusto C. Lagman, Herman T. Gamboa, Benjamin A. Santos, and Edgar H. Sarte. Initially offering programming and IT-related courses, the institution expanded rapidly.
Over time, STI broadened its curriculum to include programs in business, hospitality, health sciences, and the arts. As a result, the acronym STI no longer officially stands for "Systems Technology Institute" and is now considered a pseudo-acronym.
In 2002, STI acquired a majority stake in De Los Santos College, forming De Los Santos–STI College of Health Professions. It also acquired a stake in De Los Santos Medical Center, which later became De Los Santos–STI Medical Center. These institutions were eventually separated from STI, with the medical center being absorbed by Metro Pacific Hospital Holdings, Inc.[3]
In 2013, STI Health Professionals, Inc., through a joint venture with Philippine Women’s University (PWU), acquired Makati Medical Center College. The partnership later dissolved, and the college was renamed Medici Di Makati College. In 2019, STI ESG also acquired the maritime school STI NAMEI.
Other campuses and affiliates
STI operates several campuses under different trade names across the country. Campus operations may vary based on student population.
