TESDA also distributed their training allowance ranging from P1,000 to P2,400.

"The benefits of the program include free training and assessment, entrepreneurship training, allowance of P100 per day for the duration of the training, and toolkits," she further said.

"Dako kaayo akong pasalamat saTESDA nga gitabangan ko, labaw na si Sir Ruel nga maayong nagtudlo sa amo sa paghimo'g balay ug paghimo'g haligi. Ika-duha nako nga pasalamatan ang 58th IB, sa Charlie company, nga dako kaayo sila natabang sa akoa," he said.
(I am very grateful to TESDA for helping me, especially to Sir Ruel who was a good teacher and taught us how to construct a house and pillars. I would also like to thank the 58th IB, particularly the Charlie company, which has been very helpful to me.)

42-year old Julio Kumpas Jr. expresses appreciation to the government for giving him opportunity to enhance his carpentry skills. With the skills he learned, he plans to open up his own carpentry business
"Ang genaingon didto sa amo nga dili mi mag surender kay patyon mi, dili na tinuod. Kami karon nga nagsurender, nakita nako nga dili man. Ang uban nag sundalo na, ang uban naa pa sa CAFGU, ug ang uban nag eskwela sa TESDA aron naa pud silay mahimong panginabuhian," he added.
(We were told that if we surrender, we will be killed. But it's not true. I saw that those who surrendered, some are already soldiers, some are in CAFGU, and others were enrolled in TESDA training so they can earn a living.)
Kumpas said he plans to open up his own carpentry business with the skills he learned and the free toolkits he will received.(APB)
