The Southeast Asia Interdisciplinary Development Institute Graduate School of Organization Development and Planning, also known as the SAIDI Graduate School of OD&P, or simply SAIDI, is a graduate school in Antipolo, Rizal Province, Philippines.[1][2]

History

[edit | edit source]
SAIDI Campus

In 1965, the Summer Educational Media Institute (SEMI) opened as a specialized program in educational media and technology for educators all over the Philippines. Masteral and doctoral students from the Ateneo de Manila University, the University of Santo Tomas, and Philippine Christian University became the first learners of educational media and technology at SEMI.[3]

In 1972, Sr. Jacqueline E. Blondin, MIC, the founding director of SEMI, made the decision to redirect SEMI's focus from education to organization development. In this newly proposed program, systems theory, previously used as a foundational principle for instruction development, was adapted for organizational applications.[3]

In September 1975, SAIDI School of OD began accepting students from Southeast Asia and introduced two master's programs that followed the "Open Learning Philosophy". This approach utilized a blend of print modules, oral instruction, and electronic technology. In 1976, the Ministry of Education recommended SAIDI to offer a postgraduate degree program in education.[3][4]

For its initial eight years, SAIDI was located in Arzobispo, Real, and General Luna Streets in Intramuros, Manila. However, in June 1983, the school moved to Antipolo in the province of Rizal.[3]
