Overview
T.I.P. was founded in Manila on February 8, 1962, by a group of educators led by Demetrio A. Quirino Jr. and his wife Teresita U. Quirino. As of 2025, the founders' daughter, Elizabeth Quirino-Lahoz, is serving as chairperson; and her firstborn son, Angelo Quirino Lahoz, is serving as president.[1]
