Manila—The Technical Education and Skills Development Authority called on students seeking technical training to first check the schools for accreditation before enrollment.
Tesda issued this advice after it discovered two schools illegally operating without government authorization and busted six others offering courses non-compliant with Tesda standards.
Withholding the names of these schools, Tesda Director General Joel Villanueva said he already ordered the closure of the two unauthorized schools.
He said he also directed the others to measure up with agency training specifications.
“These students are at risk of facing problems, at times not being immediately hired by employers needing skilled workers since they cannot be assessed by Tesda,” he added.
Students could do this simply by checking a school’s Tesda certification online (www.tesda.gov.ph).
Accredited schools are also required to display their Tesda certificates within school premises.
Technical schools must first pass a registration and accreditation process, with their modules compliant with Tesda standards, before they could legitimately operate and have their graduates Tesda-certified. Inquirer
