 WHAT IS TESDA?
The Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA) was
established through the enactment of Republic Act No. 7796 otherwise known
as the "Technical Education and Skills Development Act of 1994", which

Act aims to encourage the full participation of and mobilize the industry, labor,
local government units and technical-vocational institutions in the skills
development of the country's human resource.

TESDA serves as the Philippines’ Technical Vocational Education and

to both manage and supervise the Philippines’ Technical Education
and Skills Development (TESD). Its goals are to develop the Filipino
workforce with “world-class” competence and positive “work values”
and to provide quality technical-educational and skills development
through its direction, policies, and programs.
 VISION
The transformational leader in the technical education and skills
development of the Filipino workforce.

MISSION
TESDA sets direction, promulgates relevant standards, and implements
programs geared towards a quality – assured and inclusive technical
education and skills development and certification system.

VALUES STATEMENT
We believe in demonstrated competence, institutional integrity, personal
commitment, culture of innovativeness and a deep sense of nationalism.
