STI's goal is to provide their students with a well-rounded education, not just academically but also be socially adept. In this regard, STI annually holds a talent search among their schools to help their students hone their hidden talents.

STI aims to:

• Bring out the best talents of the STI students which will help them develop their personality.
• Develop their competitive spirit while exploring the value of sportsmanship, camaraderie, and teamwork.

This year's competitions are:

• Battle of the Bands Competition
• STI Idol Solo Singing Competition
• Hataw Sayaw Dance Competition
• Mr. & Ms. STI 2007

All student contestants in the various competitions must:

• be enrolled in any of STI's major course offerings by June 30, 2007 and must still be an on-going student at the time of the competitions
• have a study load of at least 18 units for CHED programs or full-load for semestral and non-semestral TESDA programs
• the competition is open only to all amateurs. Professionals (those who use their talents for a fee) are disqualified from joining the competitions
