When we complete the course, do we get some sort of diploma or certificate

TESDA is designed to provide online courses to as many Filipinos possible. Currently, their focus is to improve in giving these training sessions to Filipinos in the best ways possible.

As of the moment, TESDA is not giving any type of diploma or certificate when they finish the course. However, once you finish a certain course, you can take the personal assessment for the National Certification at any given TESDA accredited assessment centers or venues.

So, finishing a course doesn’t actually promise a certificate but you can take National Certification assessments. Passing the certification will give you the necessary proof you need that you know what you are doing / that you finished a course.
