The study employed quantitative correlational research design. There were 240 respondents who are instructors of Bohol Island State University. The random sampling technique was used to choose the respondents among the 6 campuses. The questionnaires used to gather data were adopted from different researchers with reliability of the items after pilot testing was conducted. Spearman rank was employed to see if there are interrelationships among variables. The result showed that many instructors are between ages 20-27 years old. Majority are female and many are permanent followed by contract of service. Majority are new in the institution serving between 1-7 years. Some instructors are in Instructor level without designations. The organizational goals are clearly known and familiar to the instructors. The instructors have high commitment in the university along with the organizational identification. The three variables are interrelated to each other. The instructors are committed in carrying their duties and responsibilities to realize the institutional vision, mission, goals and mandates with integration of their personal and the institution’s values. Further, employees have very high organizational identification and are more committed to work when organizational goals are clearly defined and are integrated in their personal objectives. The institution may conduct school-family day to foster relationships among colleagues. To maintain the level of commitment and organizational identification among faculty members, the school will continue to integrate the vision, mission, goals and mandates in the academic activities especially in their lessons as reflected in their learning plan and in the school activities.
