The analysis presented the strategies, intervention, effectiveness and challenges, lessons learned, and contributory factors gained by the participants as part of the training program of the Department of Education - Calintaan district. Results revealed that the concluded intervention program in research capability was very effective, indicating that it helped teachers enhance their research engagement.
