The Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) aims to generate 8 million digital jobs in the next three years.
On Saturday, the DICT said it had launched the 'Trabahong Digital' program, which seeks to expand internet connectivity across the country and equip Filipinos with digital skills.
“Driving the digital-first economy will maximize job opportunities and business growth through digital skills empowerment and by providing our people with the tools they need to succeed,” DICT Secretary Henry Aguda said.
The DICT expressed confidence in achieving its job creation target by 2028, with the help of active partnerships with the government, academic institutions, and the private sector.
