 This study primarily aimed to evaluate the implementation of the Information and Communications Technology at Naval State University. The descriptive-correlational design was used to gather data on the profile of the faculty, technological competencies of the faculty, extent of implementation of ICT at Naval Province State University, problems encountered by the faculty in the implementation of ICT, and the feedbacks of the faculty in the implementation of ICT at Biliran Province State University during the school year 2018-2019. Most of the faculty are middle-aged, females, non-ICT, has a length of service of 5 years and below, has masteral units, and has not attended trainings in ICT. The faculty has the competencies to use the technology on productivity, research, communication, presentation, and media purposes. The ICT is often implemented by the faculty in their teaching process. The facilities and equipment are sometimes available; the ICT equipment are often accessible; and the faculty are more confident in utilizing ICT in teaching. The faculty strongly agree in the implementation of ICT. There is no significant relationship between the profile of the faculty and the extent of implementation of ICT. On the other hand, there is a significant relationship between the technological competencies of the faculty and the extent of implementation of ICT, and between the problems encountered by the faculty in the implementation of ICT and the extent of implementation of ICT. It is concluded that the ICT was often implemented by the faculty in Naval State University. It is hereby recommended that the training plan crafted by the researcher should be utilized to improve the teaching competencies of the faculty in the utilization of ICT at Naval State University.
