Apprenticeship Learnership: Coverage

Apprenticeship and learnership programs in the Philippines have differences in their coverage, concepts, qualifications, and commitments. Apprenticeships are for highly skilled occupations and involve both practical and theoretical training over 3-6 months. Learnerships are for semi-skilled occupations and only require practical training up to 3 months. Apprenticeships require a written agreement and do not guarantee employment, while learnerships have an agreement and employer commitment to hire upon completion. TESDA approval is needed for apprenticeships but not learnerships.
