On July 19, 2024, TESDA Women's Center (TWC) facilitated an interactive Gender Sensitivity Training(GST) for the Barista NC II and Bookkeeping NC III trainees.

The GST is a regular part of TWC’s empowerment-focused training curriculum.

Through the GST, trainees are enabled to:

• Understand gender concepts and stereotypes
• Recognize and address gender-based discrimination
• Develop effective communication and collaboration across genders
• Foster inclusive and respectful work environments

The GAD module: Working in a Gender Diverse Environment is also accessible through the TESDA Online Program (TOP).

On August 2 and 7, 2024, TWC also conducted same GST Training for its new batch of trainees. This training reinforces the center's commitment to fostering inclusive, supportive learning environments where all students can thrive, regardless of gender. By promoting gender equality, TWC is equipping the next generation of skilled workers with the values and mindset needed to build a more just society
