To better understand the type of training a domestic worker has had, employers can look at the courses on offer in their helper\u2019s home country.

For many Filipino workers, the path to a successful and sustainable career begins with the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority, commonly known as <b data-path-to-node=\"6\" data-index-in-node=\"333\">TESDA<\/b>.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"7\">Whether you are an aspiring helper preparing for your first overseas deployment or an employer looking to understand the qualifications of your staff, understanding <b data-path-to-node=\"7\" data-index-in-node=\"165\">TESDA training<\/b> is essential for ensuring excellence in the household.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"7\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-15307\" src=\"https:\/\/www.helperchoice.com\/c\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/The-Complete-Guide-to-TESDA-Training-for-Domestic-Helpers-Skills-Certification.png\" alt=\"The complete guide to tesda training for domestic helpers skills &amp; certification\" width=\"800\" height=\"550\" \/><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Philippine_training_requirements\"><\/span>Philippine training requirements<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3 data-path-to-node=\"8\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_TESDA_Training_for_Domestic_Helpers\"><\/span><b data-path-to-node=\"8\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">What is TESDA Training for Domestic Helpers?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"9\">The cornerstone of professionalizing domestic work in the Philippines is the <b data-path-to-node=\"9\" data-index-in-node=\"77\">Domestic Work NC II (National Certificate II)<\/b>.

It costs a <strong>PHP 1,000 assessment fee,<\/strong> and if you failed the assessment, you will have to pay that amount again. You must pay another <strong>PHP 100 to the TESDA office to get the certificate<\/strong> if you pass the test. The certification is essential to gain the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.philembassykl.org.my\/main\/index.php\/labor-services\/overseas-employment-certificate\">Overseas Employment Certificate (OEC)<\/a>, which is required to leave the country, from the Philippine Embassy. <\/strong>Without the course, the Philippine Embassy may not notarize helpers\u2019 contracts.
