Abstract
This research investigates the insights and suggestions of teachers in implementing the reformed Physical Education (PE) program in the Philippine Higher Education Institutions (HEI) called "Physical Activity Towards Health and Fitness" (PATH-Fit). Employing a qualitative descriptiveapproach, 14 participants were purposefully selected as the primary source of data. The main data-gathering tool was a series of in-depth interviews complemented by expert-validated guide questions. The study revealed six essential themes: the demand for continuous retooling activities, the prioritization of facilities and equipment, the amplification of PE’s significance, the call to reduce paper and pen activities, the importance of seniors’ support and guidance, and the need for clear learning references. These themes underscore the complex opportunities in implementing PATH-Fit, and it suggest that investing in continuous professional development, optimizing learningenvironments, and refining teaching approaches are crucial for the success of PE in higher education. The findings of this study contribute to an understanding of PATH-Fit implementation, which has implications for educators, administrators, and policymakers seeking to enhance the quality and effectiveness of PE in higher education programs in the country.
