TACLOBAN CITY – The Department of Labor and Employment in Eastern Visayas (DOLE-8), in collaboration with the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority Regional Office 8 (TESDA-8), has taken a step towards bridging the gap between job seekers and employers by organizing a Job Skills Matching Activity for Technical-Vocational Education and Training (TVET) Graduates.
The event was held on April 24, 2023, at the TESDA Region 8 Multi-purpose Covered Court in Brgy. 91 Abucay, Tacloban City, in preparation for the upcoming Labor Day Job Fair on May 1, 2023.
The event's primary objective was to address the job-skills mismatch and help TVET graduates find suitable employment. During the activity, participants were assessed based on their skills and qualifications to match them with potential employers.
The Job Skills Matching Activity was open to all TESDA alumni seeking employment, regardless of their qualifications. —iTacloban
