Compilation of Training Programs for HRD and Entrepreneurship

I think this is a valuable resource to those who are interested to undergo a training or those who were searching for what livelihood training are available offered by the government. The compiled training programs called 2010 HRD and Entrepreneurship Training Programs for MSMEs is a down loadable PDF file which you can open by Acrobat reader and this is made possible and compiled by the PHILIPPINE TRADE TRAINING CENTER/DTI under the direction of the TWG on Training Inter-Agency Coordinating Committee (IACC).

The compendium of 2010 HRD and Entrepreneurship Training Programs for MSMEs is a list of training programs offered by government training institutions in support of the National SME Development Agenda, a priority program of H.E. President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo. The Department of Trade and Industry is the lead government agency tasked to implement the SME Development Agenda and provide MSMEs with seamless access to government agencies. HRD and Entrepreneurship Training is one of five core elements of the Agenda that also includes financing, marketing, product development and technological intervention, and advocacy for an enabling environment.

OBJECTIVES:

The training and entrepreneurship development programs of the National SME Agenda seek to provide existing and potential entrepreneurs with the necessary skills and knowledge to become competitive players in the local or global market. They also seek to create a pool of SME trainers, advisers and counselors who can effectively assist MSMEs nationwide.

Training programs in this compendium are classified into the following categories:

1. Business Technology and Livelihood Skills courses include food preparation and processing, plant propagation, seed production, fish culture, metal works and fabrication, animal husbandry, handicrafts, fabric and textile technology, weaving, garments, embroidery, gifts, furniture making, ceramics and pottery, microbiology, holiday decor, garments, toys, housewares, product packaging, diagnostics and analysis, calibration and instrumentation, construction and allied activities (e.g. carpentry, masonry, concrete works and electrical), equipment handling, maintenance and service, operations, etc.)
