The Department of Education (DepEd), Commission on Higher Education (CHED), and Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA) launch “One Education,” a joint initiative intended to create more seamless pathways from basic education to higher education, technical-vocational training, and employment. The initiative is designed to better connect learner journeys across different education and skills tracks, aiming to reduce gaps between schooling and subsequent opportunities in tertiary education and the workforce. Reports say the program is part of broader education reforms focused on accelerating improvements in how learners transition through the education system. By coordinating among the three agencies, “One Education” seeks to streamline planning and implementation related to learner pathways, including the movement from school to post-basic learning options such as colleges and technical-vocational programs. The launch takes place as the agencies align their mandates under a single framework for smoother progression for students. Overall, the initiative is presented as an effort to strengthen the learning-to-employment link for Filipinos.
