Wala pa po tayong official astronaut training sa Pilipinas, galing man yan sa TESDA o sa ibang ahensya.

Pero may TESDA courses na nagtuturo ng skills na hindi nalalayo sa skills na required ng space missions. ๐Ÿ‘€

Robotics. Automation. Life support. Instrumentation and control.

Astronaut skills? Hindi pa naman. Space-ready skills? Kayang kaya! ๐Ÿš€

Ikinuwento ko sa isang interview na halos P500 million na ang ibinuhos ng TESDA para sa scholarships in AI and AI-related trainings nationwide โ€” bilang bahagi ng ating pagpapalawak ng access sa AI upskilling at digital skills.

Kasama kasi ang TESDA sa mga ahensya na nagpapatupad ng ating National AI Upskilling Roadmap. Ang layunin: bumuo ng robust AI ecosystem sa bansa.

AI is everywhere, and itโ€™s here to stay. Kami sa TESDA, committed kami na sumabay sa panahon at magbigay ng trainings na magtuturo sa atin para maging future-ready!

What happens when Sec. Kiko meets Sec. Kiko? ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿšœ

Today, TESDA and the Department of Agriculture formalized a five-year strategic partnership to institutionalize Urban and Peri-Urban Agriculture in the Philippines.

Bubuo tayo ng Urban Agriculture Production NC II at gagawing flagship Urban Agriculture Training Center ang TESDA Complex sa Taguig, kung saan ituturo ang hydroponics, vertical farming, at climate-smart production.

Skills para sa Pilipino. Food security para sa bansa!

Visayas will always be close to my heart. Kaya naman it feels like home lang every time I meet with our Visayas Congressmen.

Yesterday, we discussed how we can bring TESDA programs even closer to more Filipinos, especially sa mga farflung Barangays.

Through ๐“๐ซ๐š๐ข๐ง ๐‹๐จ๐ค๐š๐ฅ, mag pa-partner na tayo sa mga LGUs para palawakin ang mga skills training.

To our Visayas Congs: tabang ta, lihok ta. Mag-uyon, magbinuligay kita.

Daghang salamat sa inyo nga support, both legislative and budgetary, para sa TESDA.

Kabay, we will be able to reach the communities that need these opportunities most!

Not every effort makes the headlinesโ€”but every effort matters!

Itโ€™s humbling to hear TESDAโ€™s programs and its impact on nation-building get recognized in the Presidentโ€™s SONA. ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ญ

Sa bawat TESDAn, maraming salamat!
I am proud of your hard work and commitment to public service.

Isang karangalan ang maging bahagi ng The Way Forward: The Unsinkable Spirit, a documentary series by the Philippine Rural Reconstruction Movement (PRRM) that sheds light on the West Philippine Sea, and the opportunities and challenges that can help shape our nationโ€™s future!

Kasama ang DepEd, inilunsad natin sa Bacolod ang Visayas leg ng Adopt-A-School Program caravan.
Hindi tayo titigil doon dahil iniikot natin ang Luzon, Visayas, at Mindanao para mas marami pang mga kumpanya ang mag-donate at sumali sa Adopt-A-School Program.

Panahon na para mas marami pa ang makiisa, for every Filipino learner!

Daming ganap sa Senado para sa education!
Iba talaga kung sama-sama at tulong-tulong ang ibaโ€™t ibang sangay ng gobyerno para sa Pilipino!

May ๐—Ÿ๐—ฒ๐—ด๐—ถ๐˜€๐—น๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ถ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ ๐—ง๐—ฟ๐—ฎ๐—ฐ๐—ธ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ ๐——๐—ฎ๐˜€๐—ต๐—ฏ๐—ผ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ฑ na rin para masundan ang mga priority education bills at kung saang yugto na ito.

At para sa mga kapatid natin sa ๐—•๐—”๐—ฅ๐— ๐—  may magandang balita rin: magkakaroon na ng ๐—•๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ด๐˜€๐—ฎ๐—บ๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐—ผ ๐—˜๐—ฑ๐˜‚๐—ฐ๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป ๐—–๐—ผ๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐—ฑ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป ๐—™๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐˜‚๐—บ (๐—•๐—˜๐—–๐—™) kung saan magtutulungan ang BARMM government, DepEd, CHED, TESDA, at PRC para ma-improve natin ang education outcomes sa Bangsamoro region.

Your documentation of the education crisis humanizes education data, at sana ay magbigay ito ng inspirasyon para kumilos ang lahat.

All of these launched in just one day, patunay na napakabilis ng momentum para sa sektor ng edukasyon. Kaya mas lalong dapat tayong magsama-sama, para Kayang Kaya natin iangat ang kinabukasan!
