TESDA (Technical Education and Skills Development Authority) is the agency of the Philippine government who helps deserving students who cannot afford to study college but has the potential for skills development in a specific field. High school graduates are welcome and qualified to take free short term courses from a list of duly accredited schools and training centers / facilities all over the Philippines including in provinces.

The secretary of the agency, Sec. Joel Villanueva (who loves basketball) is the one who takes care of all the agency's dealings to help the Filipino youth have their chance at education in this lifetime even if they don't have the finance to spend for college courses. This way, they get to develop what skills are needed to go get a job later at competitive salary-giving companies with the qualification that fits the job offer.
