Group seeks aligning learning, manufacturing
Rapid transformation requires a workforce equipped with a dynamic skillset and our young people must possess the ability to adapt, learn, and continuously relearn to cope with these advanced technologies.

Partnership for future USAID and private businesses called for an effective education institutions-industry collaboration for the manufacturing sector. The partnership was sealed among (standing, from left) Patricia Siriban, director, Advanced Manufacturing Skills Council; John Escario, VP for administration, CIT-University; Larmie Feliscuzo, director, Management Information System and External Affairs; Michelle Chen, director, Office of Education at USAID Philippines; Henry Grageda, project management specialist, USAID Manila; Danilo Lachica, chief-of-party, Advanced Manufacturing Workforce Development Program.
