TVET (Technical-Vocational Education and Training) Center
It is a Home and School for the poor and out-of-school youth where they learn various technical skills of their choice as a means to gain decent employment. The center is managed and run by the Partners of the Salesians of Don Bosco.
The course can be learned in one year. The first ten months of training are spent in the center to build the trainees' theoretical foundation (30%) and their hands-on training experience (70%).
On the eleventh month, all trainees are assigned for a 5-month On-the-job training in selected companies to advance their technical skills and firm up their attitude as a means of preparing them for the exciting world of work. This orientation scheme initiates the graduates to an industrial setting that demands hard work, quality performance and proper work values.

Library and Learning Resource Center
In 1999 Fr. Caesar Dizon, SDB, former rector of Don Bosco Technical Institute-Makati, spearheaded a special project and organized a working team to conceptualize the development of a new learning center called the "Mulitiple Intelligence Center. It is patterned from the theory of Dr. Howard Gardner who believed that every man has his own kind of intelligence and potential as a person.
The MIC was conceived to make students, teachers and personnel to be in touch with technological change. This change reflects a major challenge present in today's society—that is, the use of modern technology in all aspects of humanity. The MIC became a learning center equipped with state-of-the-art technology and incorporating modern theories and principles.
On August 15, 2000, after its blessing by the Rector, the new MIC became functional with the appointment of Ms. Ofelia Dantes as its first head.

Clubs
• Boscorale, the school's representative choral group, is one of the known all-male High School choirs in the Philippines. The Boscorale was said to be the school's pride when it comes to chorale singing due to its various achievements from winning in various prestige chorale competitions in the metro. To date, the young male choir have already achieved 16 notable prizes: 6 championships, 9 runners-up and a minor award.[12][13][14][15] The Boscorale is currently holding the "back-to-back" championship titles in the Annual Ayala Interschool Christmas Caroling Competition and the Musica FEUropa - High School Category Competition.
Enlightened and moved by the spirit of St. John Bosco, the Boscorale aims to be in melody and harmony with the Lord Almighty, for they believe that "a school without music is like a body without a soul." -St. John Bosco
