Cong. Miraflores Assures Support
to CTEC’s Item in LGUs

Congressman Florencio T. Miraflores assured the Community Training and Employment Coordinators (CTECs) particularly in making CTEC’s item a permanent position in the Local Government Units for his full support.
This was Cong. Miraflores’ response to the request of CTECs during the closing ceremonies of the Local Employment Management and Labor Market Analysis training held recently at Aklan State University-School of Industrial Technology, Kalibo, Aklan.
“CTEC function is additional load for us in the LGU”, said CTEC Magdalena Tibulan of LGU-Numancia. “We’re happy that Cong. Miraflores gave his assurance to work out CTECs position in Congress. This will strengthen our commitment to focus on employment generation and coordination in our respective municipalities,” added Tibulan.
Cong. Miraflores commended TESDA Aklan for facilitating the training on Labor Market Analysis and Local Employment Management for CTECs, school officials and career guidance counselors. “Initially, I was not very clear about this training but as I listened to the various resolutions of the LGU and TVET school participants, I am now convinced that this kind of training is very important particularly to enhance the employment opportunities in Aklan. I am very glad to have supported this project” remarked Cong. Miraflores.
“I am very pleased also by the strong commitment shown by the CTECs and TVET administrators to apply the learnings acquired from this training course. CTECs “Manifesto of Commitment” to come up with a Skills Map and schools administrators commitment to conduct Tracer Study of their graduates are indeed great help in the mobilization of local market management in Aklan” said Cong. Miraflores. “The Skills Map will help determine the training needs as well as the capabilities of our labor force to support our local government units to implement policies and programs that will redound to the promotion of decent and gainful employment to all Aklanons. On the other hand, the Tracer Studies of TVET graduates will determine their employment as well as their utilization rates and will guide all of us in making better decisions related to satisfying the requirement of the local as well as the global markets”, he added.
Aside from giving financial support to the labor market training, Cong. Miraflores also supported other TESDA’s programs on Plant for Life and the completion of the Provincial Training Center.
The Congressman assured the entire TVET community for his continuing support to the programs of TESDA. “Surely, I’ll tell DG Boboy Syjuco of these significant activities PD Lorena T. Yunque and her staff is doing for Aklan,” added Cong. Miraflores. /MP
