About the CSS NC II Learning Platform
A dedicated web-based educational portal designed to support Computer Systems Servicing NC II learners with accessible, competency-aligned learning materials.
Project Context & Background
The Computer Systems Servicing (CSS) NC II qualification under the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA) equips learners with core competencies in installing computer systems, setting up networks, configuring server roles, and performing maintenance and repairs.
Conventionally, instructional materials for TVET trainees are distributed via printed handouts, loose electronic files, external links, or disconnected repositories. This disjointed arrangement makes it difficult for learners to systematically monitor their readiness for national qualification assessments.
This platform bridges that gap by providing a centralized, structured, and user-friendly web portal that organizes instructional content into competency-based modules, incorporates downloadable media, and enables learners to record their completion progress.
General & Specific Objectives
Core Competencies Covered
Competency 1: Install and Configure Computer Systems
Hardware assembly, anti-static precautions (ESD), BIOS/UEFI configuration, OS installation (Windows & Linux), driver installation, and application software setup.
Competency 2: Set Up Computer Networks

Competency 3: Set Up Computer Servers
Windows Server administration: Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS), DNS, DHCP server configuration, Organizational Units (OU), and Group Policy Objects (GPO).
Competency 4: Maintain and Repair Systems & Networks
System diagnostics, 5S methodologies, preventative maintenance scheduling, backup and restore procedures, and hardware replacement diagnostics.

🌐 Technical Requirements & Connectivity
CSServe is an online cloud-connected learning portal powered by Supabase PostgreSQL. An active internet connection is required to authenticate, load curriculum content, stream procedural videos, record learning progress, take quizzes, and manage institutional gradebooks. While downloadable resources (PDFs, schematics) may be saved locally by learners, web application features require active network connectivity.
