Abstract: This study explores the key features, operational mechanisms, and functional advantages of a multifunctional alarm system, emphasizing its security applications and its integration into skills training for Electrical Installation and Maintenance (EIM). Grounded on the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), the study seeks to optimize the system by integrating advanced technologies to enhance security, reliability, and user-friendliness. It further aims to evaluate the adoption level of the system by assessing user acceptance, market viability, and potential implementation challenges among teacher-trainers—graduates of Industrial Technology and allied courses—teaching TVL-E subjects in junior and senior high schools in the Division of Iligan City. A descriptive-correlational research design utilizing mixed methods was employed. Quantitative data were collected using a validated five-point Likert scale survey and analyzed using descriptive statistics and Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) to evaluate the relationships among perceived Usefulness (PU), perceived ease of use (PEU), Attitude towards use, behavioral intent to use (BIU), and actual system usage. Thirty (30) purposively selected respondents participated in the survey. Qualitative data from open-ended questions were thematically analyzed to determine patterns of opinion regarding the system’s application in skills training.
