The Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA) on Saturday informed Caregiving National Certificate (NC) II holders that the job opportunity in Israel is still open for application.
The Philippine Overseas Employment Administration (POEA) in November last year said Israel needs at least 500 Filipino caregivers to work for them under a government-to-government scheme with no placement fee required.
TESDA records show that a total of 7,813 Filipinos — 6,381 female and 1,432 male — have acquired their Caregiving NC II from January 1 to November 18 last year.
Israel does not require a college diploma, but applicants must at least be a high school graduate, have finished caregiving course, and passed TESDA’s assessment and certification. (Leslie Ann Aquino)
