Now it can be told that students with tech-voc courses have an easier time in finding jobs, especially that there is currently a high demand for skilled workers here and abroad.
While a number of college graduates of traditional courses remained unemployed or underemployed, the need for tech-voc graduates who have skill-specific competencies continues to surge heights. As the country props up for industrialization, it will need skilled workers who have entry-level skills, values formation, and the right mindset to meet the challenges in the workplace.
It is true that the job-education mismatch that caused unemployment was a result of our bias for degree courses overlooking the importance of the middle-level manpower as an economic engine in technology-based and talent-hungry industries.
CITE, being in the forefront in tech-voc training and education, has seen the need to fill the void by providing opportunities for young people to pursue a technical course and make a difference in their lives.
Its hallmark 3-year programs, Electromechanics Technology and Information Technology, respond to the perennial need of the industries for industry-ready young individuals who have passion for work and unquenchable thirst for learning.
The school also adopts Dual Training System which permits trainees to experience in-school and guided in-plant training with corresponding allowances. Its placement arm is constantly on the lookout for industries who can provide the best training for the students and possibly and gainful employment in the future.
While graduates of degree courses continue to escalate, not all of them will be hired, but definitely a tech-voc graduate who has proper training and competencies will never find himself unemployed.
Make CITE your choice. Entrance examinations are held every Saturday at 10:00 a.m.
