Abstract: The recent challenges in the delivery of instruction leads to the indispensable use of online platforms. Tasks of mentors and learners are now required to be done online. Presently it is undeniable that all disciplines involve the use of a computer. Thus the increasing utilization of computers is not only for computer education and computer programming skills but in all fields or disciplines. This study determined the challenges and experiences encountered by lecturers and students in relation to the acquisition and transfer of relevant knowledge in computer education specifically in programming courses. The Random Sampling method was used in identifying the sample size that is calculated based on the following parameters: (1) population size; (2) margin of error; and (3) confidence level. The total population of respondents is one hundred twenty-nine (129), eighty-four (84), or 65% males and forty-five (45), or 35% females. The test-retest method was employed to ensure the reliability of the instrument and the Modified-adopted survey questionnaire for gathering the required data. In order to check the coefficient of reliability of the data the Spearman-Brown method was utilized. Results revealed that most males prefer to enroll in Bachelor of Science in Computer Science (BSCS), keener and more motivated to do programming. They are keener in computer programming. Study also shows that students need to have the good foundation in courses like (1) knowledge in basic science and math course as well as (2) more hands-on programming activities. In order to produce well-versed BS Computer Science graduates, it is recommended that a more enhanced IT and Computing Education and Orientation Program should be given priority.
