The document outlines guidelines for research management in the Department of Education that provide an orientation on improved grant processes, mechanisms for managing research initiatives, and potential issues in implementing the Research Management Guidelines. It discusses the legal basis for DepEd to conduct educational research, strategic directions that emphasize accelerating research and development, and milestones in research management over time. The objectives of the Research Management Guidelines are to provide guidance across governance levels, improve support for research through funding and partnerships, and reinforce the link between research and education policies/programs.
