the total labor force in the global tourism
industry

SITUATION
Many schools particularly in remote regions
have difficulty placing their graduates
insufficient relevant skills
poor language proficiency
shortage in apprenticeship venues
Among the 685 colleges and universities
offering B.S. Tourism related programs, less
than 5% have achieved an Accreditation Level
III Status
Heavy concentration of better schools in Metro

DEPARTMENT OF TOURISM
SITUATION
National curriculum has 150 and 151 units –
compared with some countries:
other countries have ladderized curriculum
general education subjects are very limited
compared to our 54 units
strong focus on apprenticeship
opportunities are diverse to expose students
in humanities, languages, personality
development and problem-solving
DEPARTMENT OF TOURISM
SITUATION
The Technical Education Skills Development
Authority (TESDA) has an extensive national
certification program; bartending, F&B
service, laundry, cooking, etc. but has
limited capability to service all regions
Shortage of qualified assessors
Average turnover rate of managers,
supervisors and R & F employees is
estimated between 12% to 23% per annum
(tenure) and 35% to 64% (casual)
DEPARTMENT OF TOURISM
RECOMMENDATIONS

Revision of curricula to reflect
longer apprenticeship hours – 1,200 hours

experience should teach major subjects
