Rep. Paul Daza has again urged the Professional Regulation Commission to reconsider its high passing standards for licensure examinations to ensure inclusivity among several industries that need skilled workers. | GabrielLaluINQ
Daza stressed that the country had a low number of passers in sectors where interested and dedicated workers are needed the most, such as the education and agricultural-related industries:24.36% for certified public accountantsAccording to Daza, such a system where more students fail in licensure exams is disadvantageous to poor families who already struggled to send their children to school — only to be restricted by examinations with high requirements.
He then suggested that non-passers be allowed to use another route, like an apprenticeship program where the failing students get the necessary skills for their career path. Daza said that it is important to balance the maintenance of high standards for Filipino workers and the inclusivity of such procedures.“Let us, by all means, continue to raise the standard for Filipino skills—but let’s not compromise when it comes to being inclusive,” Daza said.
“We are stewards of the next generation of Filipino talent. We must empower all those who seek to be professionals and serve our country, regardless of social status or physical condition,” he added.Subscribe to our daily newsletter
