Northern Quezon College Incorporated is a college institution in Infanta, Quezon, Philippines.

History[edit]

The Northern Quezon College Inc., formerly Northern Quezon Cooperative College (NQCC), Infanta Community College (ICC), started operating during the second semester of 1968–1969 with the initial enrolment of thirty eight (38) students. The management of the school was entrusted to the Division Superintendent of schools with the authority of the former Secretary of Education, Juan Manuel.

The management of the college was then entrusted to a board of trustees, composed of eleven members: the Municipal Mayor, Honorary member, President of the College, the incumbent Principal of the Infanta Provincial High School, and the division superintendent, as consultant.

The initial courses were:

Two year course in Associate in Arts General Curriculum leading to SB, BSE, and BSEED.
Associate in Commerce, 2 year Curriculum.
Secretarial Science

The classroom of the Infanta Provincial High Schools were used from 4:30 P.M. to 9:00 in the evening. The Infanta Community College (ICC) later acquired office and laboratory equipment and books for the library.

Qualified instructors were hired on a part-time basis from Infanta Provincial High School and other professionals within the community.

The college operated mainly from tuition fees and occasional budgetary support from the Municipality of Infanta.

In 1988, a group of civic professional groups, including the staff of Infanta Community College (ICC) organized themselves and formed the Northern Quezon Cooperative College (NQCC) and took over the management and administration of the Infanta Community College (ICC) through a resolution of the Sangguniang Bayan, introduced by one of the councilors. From the members of the Incorporators, Board of Directors, was elected to run the Cooperative.

Through an intensive membership campaign enrollment grow from fifty (50) to eighty two (82) as 1992. The NQCC management initiated various fund raising campaigns for the purpose of purchasing one (1) hectare site near the National Highway at Barangay Comon, Infanta, Quezon. A seven-room school building was constructed with separate comfort room for boys and girls.

Each classroom is furnished with blackboards, forty (40) chairs and a teacher's table. All classrooms are provided with electric lights and electric fans.
