Anticipating and building skills for the future is essential to a rapidly changing labour market. This applies to changes in the types and levels of skills needed as well as in occupational and technical areas. Effective methods to anticipate future skills needs and avoid potential mismatches include: sustained dialogue between employers and trainers, coordination across government institutions, labour market information systems, employment services and performance reviews of training institutions.

Investing in the 21st Century Skilled Filipino Workforce Themed “Investing in the 21st Century Skilled Filipino Workforce”, the Plan outlines innovative strategies to guide the major TVET actors on the courses of action that need to be carried out to address the economy’s future skills requirements. Anchored on the Philippine Development Plan 2011-2016 and the Labor and Employment Plan 2011-2016, the NTESDP 2011-2016 seeks to contribute to achieving the vision of inclusive growth through the improved provision of TVET. As a means by which workers’ productivity and employability are enhanced, TVET is seen as a primary enabler that allows the active and meaningful participation of workers in the development process.The NTESDP serves the following purposes:
• It outlines the major directions, including specific strategies, policies and programs for technical vocational education and training;
• It serves as a guide for the multifarious TVET players so that coherence and alignments in its implementation are advanced.
The NTESDP is mainly directional and its operational translation takes place in the Regional and Provincial Technical Education and Skills Development Plans (R/PTESDPs). The R/PTESDPs, to be determined and implemented at the regional and provincial levels, shall provide the area and sector-specific skills development requirements and program interventions.
