In an interview, TESDA Secretary Kiko Benitez discussed the broader challenge of the persistent gap between education and employment and explained how technical vocational education and training (TVET) helps bridge this divide.
The TESDA chief also emphasized that the agency’s measure of success goes beyond training completion as TESDA continues to equip millions of Filipinos with the skills needed to thrive in today’s labor market.
By combining accessible online learning with hands-on classroom training, TESDA ensures that Filipino learners are equipped with practical skills that turn learning into meaningful careers.
