Micro-credentials: Empowering Filipinos for the future of work Noemi Lardizabal-Dado - Noemi Lardizabal-Dado, Manila Times

In an evolving tech landscape, micro-credentials are proving to be instrumental for upskilling and reskilling. Micro-credentials are skill-centric certifications aimed at helping learners enhance their proficiency across various knowledge domains. President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. emphasized the value of micro-credentials for Filipino workers to stay competitive in a meeting with members of the Private Sector Advisory Council (PSAC) last year. "It's not a four-year course. It's not a degree. But you can present this to qualify for a job," said President Marcos. He emphasized the need to provide retraining and reskilling opportunities for overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) intending to return to the country.
