The Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA) recently held the capsule laying and groundbreaking ceremony on April 11, 2025, for the upcoming Regional Training Innovation Center (RTIC) inside the PHIVIDEC Industrial Estate in Brgy. Sta. Cruz, Tagoloan, Misamis Oriental. The center, to be built on a 3-hectare lot donated by PHIVIDEC, aims to provide advanced technical education and hands-on training for Filipinos, especially those in Northern Mindanao, to meet the growing demand for skilled workers within PHIVIDEC and other industries in the region.
TESDA Director General Jose Francisco B. Benitez and PHIVIDEC Administrator and CEO Atty. Joseph Donato J. Bernedo led the activity alongside TESDA Regional Director Rafael Y. Abrogar II and Tagoloan Mayor Atty. Nadya B. Emano-Elipe.
