Brief Summary:

The PGMA-TWSP provides training coupons for "near-hires" - people who are already employable but still need a little enhancement of their skills.
The "near-hires" present their training coupons at schools offering Tesda-registered finishing courses in the business process outsourcing (BPO) industry like the Call Center (100 hours),
Medical Transcription (160 hours), and other industries with critical skills requirements like the Shielded Metal Arc Welding (304 hours), Gas Metal Arc Welding (80 hours), and Household Services (40 hours).
The schools will in turn present the training coupons at Tesda for collection of payment.
The PGMA-TWSP has been conceptualized to ensure that quality workers are produced to meet job openings in industries.
For this endeavor, President Arroyo has allocated P500 million for CY 2007 alone. And there will be more next year.
A month from now, you might just become one of the best call center agents, or most sought-after medical transcriptionists, or finest household service workers, or exceptional welders our country can ever have.
