THE INTER-AGENCY Task Force Against Covid19 gave the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority the green light to conduct limited in-person training and assessment programs, Malacañang said on Friday.

Presidential Spokesman Harry Roque said TESDA can now hold onsite sessions at 50 percent venue capacity in areas under Alert Levels 2 to 4.

Full venue capacity, on the other hand, could be implemented under Alert Level 1.

“In-adopt din ng IATF ang proposed guidelines ng TESDA para sa pagsasagawa ng limited face-to-face training and assessment,” Roque said in a news briefing.

However, Roque said that no physical activities will be allowed in areas under Alert Level 5.

He reminded those who will attend the trainings to strictly observe the minimum public health protocols.

Metro Manila and several areas are under Alert Level 2 from November 5 to 21. Under the said alert level, establishments can operate from 50 percent to 70 percent depending on whether they operate indoors or outdoors.
