TESDA Authorized Courses in the University of Mindanao

There are many TESDA-accredited schools in Mindanao, but the University of Mindanao stands out. As a school, it is one of the oldest in the region, and is the largest, private, non-sectarian university in all of Mindanao. That being said, the way they integrated TESDA courses into their course catalogue is perfectly aligned with their goal of making education more accessible in the area.

Back in the 1940s, going to college in Southern Mindanao was expensive and could only be afforded by a few elite families, but the University of Mindanao changed that. Now, they’ve gone as far as to offer accredited technical-vocational courses for Mindanaoans who cannot afford the full college costs.

The best thing about taking a TESDA course? Upon completing it, you get a National Certificate which would allow you to practice your honed skill anywhere in the Philippines. It’s perfect for those who want or need to go straight to work after high school.
