Under PD 1534, who would typically be appointed as Chairman?

• A. Director of Higher Education
• B. PRC Commissioner
• C. Dean of the Institute of Hygiene
• D. Director of Private Education

Answer: (A)

Under this decree, the body regulating private education is steered by a chairman who comes from the office that sets and oversees higher education standards. The Director of Higher Education heads the commission that integrates policy, quality assurance, and coordination across higher education institutions. Appointing the Director of Higher Education as chairman ensures strong alignment with national higher education goals, uniform standards, and effective oversight of private higher education within the broader framework of higher education reform. The other options reflect roles with narrower or different scopes—PRC commissioners regulate professions, a dean is an institutional administrator rather than a national regulator, and the Director of Private Education would lead a specific department rather than chair the overarching board.
