The Pastors and Administrators’ Training Seminar – Advanced Course, also referred to as “Empower” PATS-AC, was envisioned to meet the needs of school heads for a higher level of training. In the past years, there was only one course of PATS for school heads, whether newly appointed or those who have more experience in using the A.C.E.® School of Tomorrow® System.
We will be keeping the online format of the PATS-AC to efficiently reach re-trainees in different areas and minimize their expenses. This will enable SOT®P to connect with school leaders across the nation who require the re-training program.
The PATS-AC is for school heads whose last training is more than five (5) years ago and those who were recommended by our Field Consultants.
March 17-21, 2025 | 7:00 AM – 4:00 PM VIA ZOOM
Registration Fee: Php 1,900.00 per head
Please proceed to our OFFICIAL PORTAL SITE and look for the PATS-AC tab.
To complete your registration, please SEND your PROOF OF PAYMENT together with the name of your school to registration@schooloftomorrow.ph. Please take note that your registration will not be acknowledged without any proof of payment.

SCHOOL OF TOMORROW® IS A SYSTEM | LET’S GO BACK TO THE BASICS and understand the concept of the School of Tomorrow system as an individualized, Bible-based, character-building system of learning. This session will help you fully explain the different distinctives of the curriculum. |
Rev. Hooge, Executive Director of School of Tomorrow®, Philippines, and his wife, Lora, grew up as children of missionary families in the Philippines. He was taken to the Philippines in 1948 by his parents, Rev. and Mrs. Frank Hooge. He finished his Junior High at Faith Academy in Manila, but completed his High School at Phoenix Christian High School, in Phoenix, Arizona. In 1962 both he and Lora enrolled at the Baptist Bible College in Springfield, Missouri, and soon it became evident that the Lord was directing their lives together. In February 1967, they were approved as missionaries of the Baptist Bible Fellowship and were in the Philippines by December of that same year. They worked with Cavite Bible Baptist Academy in 1978, using the Accelerated Christian Education® (A.C.E.®) program—giving birth to what is now School of Tomorrow®, Philippines. He is also the president of BLESS®, Inc., which uses the ABC’s with Ace and Christi of A.C.E. School of Tomorrow® to minister to children through literacy.

Mr. Ermitaño completed his elementary education at the Philippine School in Damman, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and his secondary education at Blessed Trinity School in Las Piñas. He took up a course in Computer Science before joining School of Tomorrow®, Philippines, in 2003.
His first exposure to the system was in the Homeschool department, formerly known as Living Heritage Academy, when he worked there as a clerk. He was tasked to administer Diagnostic Tests to lower-level students and encode grades in the Learning Management System.
In 2005, he started his creative journey in the ministry and handled the conceptualization and design of the event and program materials both in digital and print. This paved the way for him to expand his ministry reach by handling a newly established MULTIMEDIA DEPARTMENT in 2009.
By 2014, God had a different route in mind for Mr. Ermitaño. He was placed in a very different area where he was given the task to handle the newly organized PROGRAM SUPPORT DEPARTMENT whose main task is the processing, production, and distribution of trade item materials for schools and homeschool families using the A.C.E. School of Tomorrow® System in the Philippines.
Then, just recently, in January of 2022, God opened another door for him in the SCHOOL SERVICES DEPARTMENT where he is handling all school-related concerns and the implementation of all planned signature events of the ministry.
Along with his ministry in SOT®P, he is also privileged to teach Media & Information Literacy and Empowerment Technologies at the Philippine Christian School of Tomorrow and function as a Media & Project Management Consultant for various ministries in the United Kingdom.
