1. In reference to DepEd Order No. 001, s. 2026 titled “Implementing Guidelines on the Enhanced Alternative Learning System”, the ALS reiterates the importance of conducting Literacy Mapping as a foundational activity in identifying prospective learners. It also underscores the need to undertake
ALS advocacy and social mobilization to effectively inform communities about the ALS programs and reach target learners.
