THE Technical Education and Skills Development Authority unveiled on Thursday its long-term plan to increase access to technical vocational education and training.
“We will seek out those who have been neglected and have experienced little or no attention from the government, introduce them to skills training, and help them realize their potential to be productive members of society,” says Tesda director general Guiling “Gene” Mamondiong.
Aside from the training given by more than 4,000 TVET providers in the country, Tesda plans to bolster its training efforts using approaches such as community-based training, expanded scholarships, Mobile Training Program, Tesda Online Program, Barangay Empowerment thru TVET, compact mobile units and onsite training and assessment.
