TESDA SORSOGON

Technical Education and Skills Development Authority in partnership with Department of Labor and Employment Sorsogon sparked new hope to tech-voc graduates whose hearts were filled with joy and gratitude upon receiving the tool kits during the awarding and distribution last March 2, 2017 at TESDA Sorsogon Function Hall.

​

The 70 grantees coming from different municipalities in the province were tech voc graduates of Diesel Engine Tune Up, Dressmaking, Tile Setting, Beauty Care Services and Construction Painting under the Special Training for Employment Program.  

​

The said activity was part of DOLE Integrated Livelihood and Emergency Employment Program (DILEEP) which aims to contribute to poverty reduction and reduce vulnerability to risks of the poor, vulnerable, and marginalized workers, either through: (1) transitional emergency employment; and (2) promotion of entrepreneurship and community enterprises.

The beneficiaries were awarded with an amount of Php 10,000 worth of power tools and equipment as a package assistance as they start their business undertaking.

​

Prior to the distribution, a training on productivity enhancement program was conducted to orient beneficiaries on business planning management to ensure efficiency and sustainability of business.

 

Meanwhile, DOLE Provincial Field Officer Marilyn L. Luzuriaga asked for the beneficiaries’ constant support to the program.

“Hagad  mi ang saindong commitment bilang parte kan saindong contribusyon sa programa.” [We are asking for your commitment as part of your contribution to the program.”], Luzuriaga said.

​

DOLE’s Integrated Livelihood and Emergency Employment Program (DILEEP) is part of TESDA’s commitment of strengthening linkages among other agencies and stakeholders in providing quality and genuine service to the public in line with the thrust of the new administration under the supervision of Sec. Guiling Mamondiong which is “Malasakit at Pagbabago, TESDA, Susi sa Kinabukasan.”
