Rationale
According to ASEAN (www.asean.org), the travel and tourism sector plays a very important
role in the overall ASEAN economy. Based on the ASEAN Travel and Tourism
Competitiveness Report 2012, it is estimated that this sector accounts for 4.6% of ASEAN
GDP. Thus, to ensure growth sustainability and greater contribution to the ASEAN economy,
the ASEAN tourism attractiveness needs to be accompanied by excellent quality of services
provided by the industry within the region. Having high-skilled tourism workers to deliver
services should become a norm to guarantee satisfaction of tourists visiting the region. One of
the ways to achieve this goal is through mutual recognition of qualifications of tourism
professionals across ASEAN Members States.
The purposes of this MRA mechanism are to facilitate mobility of tourism professionals within
ASEAN based on tourism competency qualification/certificate, and at the same time, improve
the quality of services delivered by tourism professionals.
Since there are 32 job titles covered under this MRA, ranging from housekeeping, front office,
food and beverages services, and food production for hotel division, to travel agencies and tour
operator for travel division, it is important that all relevant institutions should understand what
this is all about in fully operationalizing in successfully pursuing the important initiatives for
the integration.
In our quest for 2015 ASEAN Integration preparedness and readiness, SMI, together with other
VET Institutions, is taking the lead in providing avenues where all technical vocational
education and training institutions understand and prepare towards recognition of professional
qualification, harmonization, and standardization within ASEAN Tourism employment and
entrepreneurship framework.
Moreover, it is for this reason that the Filipino workforce is faced with global, much less
ASEAN, and domestic challenges and a changing workplace and economic milieu. With this, in
accordance to the National Technical Education and Skills Development Plan (NTESDP) for
2011-2016, there is a need to strengthen partnership among stakeholders in achieving one of the
major objectives that serves as anchors to realize 21st
Century Skilled Workforce. Thus, in

achieving effective training management, there must be 1) sustainable research and
development; and 2) mobilization of quality resource inputs.
Therefore, it is essential that all vocational education and training providers understand its
effect to education industry in lieu to the agreed Qualifications Framework by having a forum
geared towards having a clear understanding in operationalizing the Tourism Toolbox, and
competency compliance. Further, in order to intensify gathering, analysis and dissemination of
labor market information (LMI), this event will ensure closer, more active and purposive
engagement with industry through regular consultation and dialogue with industry not only at
the national level but sub-national as well to identify collaboration and integration of
employability skills and developmental concerns.
The data, after process validation, to be gathered will beneficial to the following:
a. Utilization of relevant data for in the conduct of periodic review of training
regulations and curricula. Further, these data will provide an up-to-date current
demands and trends from the ground-level which will “deepen the
theoretical/knowledge, employability skills, promoting the use of
automation/technology, power tools, strengthening safety and health and
consideration of environmental/ecological concerns.”
b. Basis for “reviewing and enhancing the curricula in consonance with the changes in
the TR and to enhance TVET delivery along both the competency-based paths and
Mutual Recognition Agreement.
Objectives
At the end of the conference, participants are able to:
1) Understand curriculum in lieu of the latest curriculum innovation
2) Unpack ASEAN Tourism MRA Training Regulation
3) Recognize ASEAN Integration implications to TESDA
4) Identify standards for Trainers who will implement the MRA
Toolbox/Curriculum
5) Know how to draw out the Employability Skills and Dimensions of Competence
in the Training Regulation
6) Undergo process validation of the inputs presented pertaining to Employability
Skills and Industry expectations in relation to TESD sectoral research and
development

MR. LEO V. VELEZ
Director III
Provincial Director,
TESDA Misamis Oriental
Dear Director Velez,
Warm greetings!
The advent of ASEAN Integration in 2015, Philippine attractiveness needs to have competitive edge among its ASEAN
neighbors. Excellence or Quality Service should spell out the advantages of our skilled Filipino workforce. With the Mutual
Recognition Agreement as an ASEAN norm and basis of standard to guarantee customer satisfaction among tourists in the
region, it is deemed important that all stakeholders have a clear understanding of ASEAN Tourism Curriculum, Regional
Qualifications and Skills Recognition Systems.
Hence, Skills Mastery Institute is grateful for the partnership that Technical Education and Skills Development Authority
and the Department of Tourism have provided. This partnership is taking the lead in providing the best avenue to
prepare/ready all stakeholders of Region X understand this recognition mechanism of professional qualification,
harmonization, and standardization in relation to ASEAN Tourism employability skills and competence.
Thus, I would like to request your good office to make this Seminar and Workshop mandatory to all Misamis Oriental
Tourism Trainers and Assessor in accordance to their Continuing Education and Training and Assessment
Moderation activity. Further, we would like to ask also if you could endorse this activity to all TESDA Technology
Institutions, DepED TLE, and CHED-Accredited schools providing Housekeeping course. This will ensure quality of
the current pool of technical trainers/assessors with their competence to trade qualifications, training delivery and assessment
methodologies in light of the ASEAN Integration 2015.
I am hoping for your favorable response on this regard for the success of our upcoming seminar and workshop on
Understanding Implication of Tourism MRA Toolbox to TESD on June 3-4, 2014 at the Mallberry Suites, Cagayan de Oro
City. This conference will be attended by 80-100 participants in Region 10 from Higher Education, Department of
Education, TESDA Technology Institutions (TTIs) and Technical-Vocational Institutions (TVIs), Tourism Organizations
and Industries, like COHARA and IHARA, and Tourism Trainers and Assessors. Registration fee is P2, 500.00.
Please find the attached concept paper helpful in knowing the different topics to be discussed. For confirmation and/or any
relevant questions, please don’t hesitate to call Mr. Eddie K. Garbosa Jr., RN at 0916-152-8949 or at 088-850-0528.
Sincerely Yours,
