TESDA to prioritize scholarships of returning OFWs 0 SHARES Share it! TESDA Secretary Isidro Lapeña has already directed regional and provincial offices of the agency to meet up with the OFWs. 58 series of 2016, or the “Guidelines in the Conduct of Reintegration Program for Returning Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs),” TESDA established a reintegration program that would provide free skills training (either for wage or self-employment) and free assessment and certification for returning OFWs and their immediate family members. The TESDA Reintegration Program also taps the expertise of returning OFWs, for the implementation of TESDA programs and projects as trainers, assessors, or experts. It also facilitates the reintegration of returning OFWs into the mainstream of Philippine society.
