TESDA Secretary Kiko Benitez Highlights Expanded Skills Training Under 2026 National Budget
TESDA Secretary Kiko Benitez underscores the government’s strong push for skills training as tech-voc training continues to play a vital role in expanding employment opportunities for Filipinos.
With the approved 2026 national budget, TESDA is strengthening its scholarship programs, expanding enterprise-based training, and rolling out initiatives aimed at equipping more learners with job-ready and future-ready skills.
The agency also continues to support Senior High School students and other learners through assessments and certifications, helping them transition more smoothly from training to employment as TESDA advances its mandate of training to trabaho.
