TESDA Offers 29 Online Courses for Free with Trade Test and Certification
People who have day jobs and wanted to explore other career options can now study online through TESDA website. Skilled workers are needed in middle-eastern countries, Australia, and Canada but most applicants always fell short because of lack of needed certifications.
