PRESIDENT Ferdinand Marcos Jr. signed the Enterprise-Based Education and Training Framework Act to align the workforce in today’s era.
Marcos said that while many local livelihood programs provide training, trainees often struggle to find jobs that match their skills.
The President said that Republic Act No. 12063 will align training programs with industry and labor market needs through public-private partnerships.
“That is why it is very important to synchronize our training and our skills training with the actual requirements of industry and the labor market. And that’s why the partnership between private and public is critical,” the Chief Executive said.
“Because if we are successful in doing this, before a student or a trainee is finished with their training, there already is an available space in the labor market waiting for them, specifically defined by industry and saying what we need are workers with these specific skills,” he added.
He also assured trainees of the government’s continued support for upskilling efforts until they secure the jobs that match their skills.
