KORONADAL CITY, South Cotabato, May 11 (PIA) -- Some 148 out-of-school youths in nearby Tampakan town recently completed a four-month skills training sponsored by the local government unit in partnership with the mining firm Sagittarius Mines Inc. (SMI) and the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA). | |||
Of these, 15 completed training in carpentry, 15 in masonry, 45 in plumbing, 22 in electrical installation and maintenance, 28 in welding and 23 in beauty care. | |||
Efren Villarina, community affairs officer II, said the training of OSYs was implemented under the Educational Livelihood Program of Mayor Leonardo Escobillo in accordance with two of his three-fold thrust, namely: education and livelihood. The third thrust is health. | |||
For the training of the out-of-school youth who come from the different barangays of the municipality, the LGU provided for the venue while SMI provided the training equipment and tools and honorarium of the trainors provided by TESDA. | |||
At the graduation ceremony on April 25, TESDA-South Cotabato Director Leonora Guiloreza encouraged the trainees “to make of the skills you have acquired from the training course.” | |||
“Believe in yourselves, hone your skills and never let them wane,” she challenged them. | |||
Meanwhile, Mayor Escobillo assured that them that help from the local government unit would not end with the graduation rites. | |||
“We have more dreams for the residents of Tampakan. This will not end here, he said. “I assure you that we will continue to develop and enrich what you have learned for the benefit of the entire municipality.” | |||
South Cotabato Gov. Arthur Y. Pingoy Jr, who was guest of honor at the graduation rites saluted the LGU for spearheading the education and livelihood program for the OSYs and for giving emphasis on skills training as a solution to poverty. | |||
“These youths can make use of the knowledge they gained to get jobs. And if they have jobs they have sources of income and could help improve the lives of their families,” the governor said. | |||
