The Department of Migrant Workers (DMW) has announced 3,000 free training slots in the National Capital Region (NCR) for Overseas Filipino Workers and their families through its K2K program, short for Kaalaman tungo sa Kabuhayan.
The announcement was shared on the DMW’s official Facebook page, inviting qualified Filipinos to sign up for skills training, certification, and job placement support.
What the K2K Program Offers
K2K, which translates to “Knowledge towards Livelihood,” is designed to help OFWs and their families build practical, in-demand skills. According to the DMW, the program provides free training, industry-recognized certification, and livelihood assistance, along with access to job opportunities both in the Philippines and abroad.
The initiative is organized in partnership with the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA) and coordinated through the National Reintegration Center for OFWs (NRCO).
Based on the promotional material, participants can expect three core components: hands-on skills training for a global future, national and international certification, and job fairs that connect them with employers.
Who Can Apply
The program is open to OFWs and their family members residing in the National Capital Region. With 3,000 slots available, the DMW is encouraging interested applicants to register early, as spaces are limited.
