Earn Certificate After Finishing TESDA Free Online Courses -- You Can Use It When Applying

by: Dave Calpito

Quite a few people who are interested in enrolling in free online courses from TESDA are asking whether they are going to receive a certificate upon finishing the courses.

The answer is YES. TESDA is going to give you a Certificate of Completion that serves as proof that a learner has successfully completed a particular course under the TESDA Online Program, otherwise known as eTESDA.

The certificate is in digital or PDF format. TESDA notes that it is a computer-generated certificate and is valid "even without signature." It also contains the specific date on which the learner completed a particular course. On top of that, the certificate shows the contact details of TESDA that employers can contact in case they need to verify the authenticity of the certificate.

Since this is a certificate of completion, this will definitely of great help when applying for a job. The applicant can always submit it as one of their requirements so they could boost their requirements and get an edge as opposed to their fellow candidates for the job they are applying for.

When it comes to the duration, a lot of learners have said that one can actually finish even up to three courses in one day. So, that is pretty quick.

All you need to have is an Internet connection plus a cellphone or a laptop.

This is one way of making our time more productive amid these toughest times.

Again, the courses are offered at no cost so you need not fork out any amount to take the courses. All you need to have are an Internet connection plus a gadget to access different modules.

HOW TO ENROLL

To enroll, you will need to go to e-tesda.gov.ph and register for an account. Check your email account for verification.

Oh, here is an added tip: If you can't find the verification email, there is a high chance you can locate it via the SPAM folder of your account.

Upon registering, you can then choose to start enrolling in any of the offered courses. Popular online courses from e-TESDA include Caregiving, Housekeeping, Bread and Pastry, Beauty Care Services, Cookery, Massage Therapy, and a bunch more.
