Some students are itching to jump into a job as soon as they graduate senior high. The TVL (Technical-Vocational Livelihood) track is the perfect choice for students that want to explore employment opportunities locally and overseas as soon as possible. After finishing any strand under the TVL track, students can apply for national certifications, and automatically get a TESDA National Certificate – a necessary document for making the most of work opportunities as soon as possible.

One of TVL’s most useful strands is ICT (Information and Communications Technology). It opens up careers in large corporations by way of analyzing the design, technology, and implementation of complex information management systems that are key to operation.


Senior High is a whole new adventure in itself. A new chapter that can change the course of your life. We hope this guide helped prepare you for what’s to come, and no matter what choice you make in the end, be confident in your ability to make a difference.
