This study utilized a descriptive research design to describe the emergency preparedness of selected Nueva Ecija residents working at different universities in the province. The researchers found out that the respondents' main sources of emergency information are television and social media sites. Although the respondents believed that a major calamity will take place in their areas within the next 12 months, a great percentage of them are not preparing for emergency situations because of their busy work schedules. More than half of the respondents did not prepare home disaster kits and 73.98% of them did not conduct an emergency drill at home for the last 12 months. Likewise, 63.78% do not have a preparedness plan to communicate and meet their family members when there is an emergency such as fire, flood, gas leak, earthquake or severe weather. The result implies that most Novo Ecijano respondents are not prepared in any crisis that will happen in their localities.

The survey found out that respondents were largely females, batch 2014, Bachelor of Elementary Education degrees, working in public institutions, and were permanent. As to present occupation and place of work, most of them are teachers and working in the country. In terms of length of experience and monthly salary, the majority of the respondents were new in their work and earning less than P20,000 a month.

The highly relevant 21st-century abilities in their current profession are interpersonal and collaborative, communication, and problem-solving. Because of the excellent accreditation status and quality education of the University, the respondents feel proud that they were its graduates.
