The Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA) on Wednesday warned the general public in opposition to pretend National Certificates (NC) spreading on-line.
According to a report by Tina Panganiban Perez on “24 Oras,” a person was arrested in Cotabato City for promoting pretend TESDA certificates for P3,500.
TESDA mentioned that the variety of folks promoting pretend certificates is growing since it is a requirement of employers, particularly overseas.
Some web sites and social media pages had been mentioned to have been shut down after they had been reported to the National Telecommunications Commission, the National Bureau of Investigation and the Department of Information and Communications Technology.
“Public documents’ yan. It is owned by the government, the certificates, so that’s falsification of public documents na merong karampatang penalty yan at kulong,” mentioned TESDA deputy director basic John Bertiz.
“Halimbawa, nag-apply ka ng crane operator, peke pala yung NC mo. Paano kung rumagasa sa mga public areas yang minamaneho mo na bus, or cranes, or heavy equipment? Or nagwe-welding ka pero hindi mo alam yung boltahe just because bumili ka ng peke para makapagtrabaho ka lang, nasunog mo yung factory mo?” he added.
Bertiz added that every one the TESDA learners are issued NCs, and lots of have discovered jobs.—LDF, GMA Integrated News
