This was despite the government’s funding of assessment and certification for senior high school learners pursuing the technical-vocational-livelihood track.
During a briefing of TESDA’s proposed budget for fiscal year 2024, Gatchalian pointed out that the Senate is moving to allocate around P1.5 billion for the assessment and certification of more than 470,000 senior high school learners taking the TVL track. For School Year 2020-2021, there were 473,911 senior high school graduates who took the TVL track, 32,965 of which took the national certification.
Out of those who took the national certification, 31,993 or 97.1% passed, but the overall certification rate for that school year was only equivalent to 6.8%. The Department of Education previously pointed out that the cost of undergoing assessment is a bottleneck for learners who took the TVL track.
