Abstract

Higher Education Institution are complex organizations that require an adequate IT infrastructure and information systems to fulfill their mission. IT governance as ‘an important part of enterprise (corporate) governance that articulates the processes, structures and relational mechanisms in the organization that enable both business and IT people to execute their responsibilities in support of business/IT alignment and the creation of business value'. It is evident that there is a lack of studies on IT governance for higher education and no studies conducted yet on this paradigm. Due to the considerable difficulty in implementing IT governance frameworks for different organizations, thus may require different solutions for IT governance. The propose model illustrates how IT governance align with enterprise governance and corporate governance of Philippines's Higher Education Institution. A Design Science Research (DSR) methodology was adopted which is extensively used in information systems research to solve complex problems. The researchers thus recommends that a combination of COBIT and ISO/IEC 3800 guidelines be adopted and used with a balanced scorecard for enterprise governance as IT Governance Framework for higher education institutions in the Philippines. This will ensure effectiveness and efficiency of IT processes as well as accountability to all stakeholder in the higher educational institutions.
