DAVAO CITY - Indonesians are flocking to this Southern Philippines trade and education center to undergo technical vocational trainings (TVTs), specifically on automotive mechanics and electronics, because studying here are higher than in their own country.
The assessment was made by Egmedio Valdez, officer-in-charge of the Korea-Philippines Vocational Training Center (KPVTC), in the wake of increasing interest among many Indonesians to study at KPVTC in this city.
On September 12, 2005, the first batch of 20 Indonesians will arrive in Davao City to undergo a two-month training on vocational courses.
The Indonesian trainees will undergo an on-the-job training (OJT) for two weeks in the city’s industrial plants after completing the course.
Valdez said only 20 of the 60 Indonesians who underwent the prescreening at the KPVTC passed the assessment examinations.
He said most of the examinees failed both in theory and practice.
“This indicates that the Philippines is ahead of Indonesia in terms of technical vocational skills, specifically on industrial automation and mechatronics,” Valdez explained.
KPVTC was created in accordance with the Agreement on Economic and Technical Cooperation between the Philippine and Korean governments signed in 1983.
The Korean government provided a grant aid of $5 million for the project, which included the construction of the center at the Technical Education Skills Development Authority (TESDA) regional training center complex in Davao.
