Empowering Filipinos, One Skill at a Time
In the heart of **DIPOLOG CITY**, a groundbreaking initiative is opening doors to brighter futures. Early January 2026 marked the launch of “Training to Trabaho,” a collaborative effort between the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA) and the Local Government of Sindangan. This visionary program is driven by Secretary Kiko Benitez’s mission to create employment opportunities for Filipinos through **relevant, demand-driven skills training programs**.
Imagine a program that not only teaches essential domestic housekeeping skills but also bridges the gap between learning and earning. Conducted by the TESDA Provincial Training Center–Sindangan, this **Domestic Housekeeping Micro-Credential Course** equips graduates with hands-on cleaning techniques, impeccable work ethics, and service excellence standards. The goal is simple yet impactful — to match the needs of busy households with the skills of trained workers, offering sustainable livelihoods while elevating the quality of service in the community.
Turning Skills into Sustainable Livelihood
The “Training to Trabaho” initiative is more than just training; it’s a pathway to financial independence for TESDA graduates, solo parents, women, and marginalized residents. For households, the convenience is unmatched — on-call housekeeping services are available for ₱150 per hour, with a minimum of two hours per booking and an additional ₱50 per hour beyond the minimum. This flexibility meets the demands of modern families, freeing up time and reducing stress.
Clients like Fatima Lagutan, a busy mother balancing work and family, attest to its value: “So far, the services are convenient and beneficial, especially for a busy mom like me hustling to earn more for my family.” Her words highlight the program’s immediate impact — providing both a reliable service to households and a steady income to workers. For those interested in availing services or joining the program, the Sindangan Public Employment Service Office and Livelihood Focal Persons are ready to assist, ensuring no willing hand is left without work.
