Objective: The aim of this study is to ascertain the respondents’ socio-demographic profile and knowledge of their duties and functions as Barangay Secretaries as stated in the Local Government Code of the Philippines. Moreover, the study will likewise determine the number of in-service training they attended and the necessary training for their professional development. Theoretical framework: The theoretical framework of the study includes the Respondents' Socio-Demographic Profile, Knowledge of their Duties and Function as Barangay Secretaries, Number of In-Service Training Attended, and the Needed Training Necessary for their Development as independent variables.

The 49 Barangay Secretaries of Tuguegarao, City, Cagayan, were asked to respond to a survey questionnaire through the endorsement of the City Mayor. Responses were analyzed using Frequency Count and Four (4) Point Likert Scale. The results showed that many respondents are tertiary graduates and have been in the service for over three years or more. Although they already possess excellent knowledge of their duties and functions, they must still be trained. Originality/value: Therefore, it is suggested that there must be in-service training opportunities that must be provided by the Local Government Unit (LGU) and Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG) thru Cagayan State University for them to hone their skills and increase their overall knowledge related to their duties and functions as Barangay Secretaries. Having said these, rest assured that the respondents can provide better public service that can improve the quality of life of people within their jurisdiction.
