— The increasing demand for efficiency in higher education administrative processes has driven institutions toward digital transformation. This study evaluates the digital transformation readiness of Dr. Filemon C. Aguilar Memorial College of Las Piñas (DFCAMCLP) in the application process of school credentials. Specifically, it assesses the institution’s preparedness across five key areas: strategy, technology, organization, people, and governance. This study utilizes the Digital Transformation Maturity Model and the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology as theoretical frameworks to examine the level of digital infrastructure, stakeholder adoption, and institutional culture supporting digitalization. A quantitative research design was employed, utilizing a structured survey questionnaire distributed among administrators, academic and administrative staff, and students involved in the credentialing process. Descriptive and inferential statistical methods were applied to analyze the data and determine significant relationships between digital maturity dimensions and technology adoption levels. Findings indicate that while DFCAMCLP has initiated digitalization efforts, challenges remain in infrastructure adequacy, staff training, and user adoption. Results suggest a need for strategic enhancements in digital literacy, system integration, and governance policies to ensure a seamless transition to a fully digital credentialing process. The study provides insights and recommendations to improve digital transformation efforts, aiming to improve operational efficiency and stakeholder satisfaction in the school’s administrative functions.
