“Competition is inevitable in any field or industry, and the key to staying ahead or at least at par with others is to continuously get yourselves better. Learn new skills or strengthen your old ones to ensure that you are ready to face and fight for the job or business that you want and dream of,” sabi naman ni Cong. John Rey Tiangco.
Ang NAVOTAAS Institute ay nagbibigay ng allowances at tool kits sa mga magsasanay sa ilalim ng Training for Work Scholarship Program (TWSP) at Special Training for Employment Program, na pinopondohan ng pambansang pamahalaan sa pakikipag-ugnayan sa tanggapan ni Cong. Tiangco. (ALAIN AJERO)
