Developing the Learners’ Skills and Competence through Training: National Certificate II (NCII) in Cookery

May 28, 2021

The Senior High School Department (SHS) in partnership with the MCC - Center for Applied Associate Degrees (CAAD) initiated a project which aims to provide the students with National Certificate II (NC II) by undergoing training, review, and assessment. With igniting perseverance, the project successfully concluded a 100% passing rate in Cookery NC II on May 12 to 14, 2021, and May 26 to 27, 2021. This gave a total of 30 who passed during the first batch and another 19 individuals during the second batch; hence, 49 of the students succeeded to obtain National Certificate II.

A TESDA National Certificate (NC) is issued when a candidate has demonstrated competence in all units of competencies comprising certain qualifications. These certain criteria were flawlessly demonstrated by the Technical Vocational and Livelihood (TVL) students who are geared towards expertise in the said field. These takers must attain a Certificate of Competency (COC) which is issued to individuals who have satisfactorily demonstrated competence on a  particular cluster of units of competency. The Cookery NC II has three Certificates for the three sets of competencies that must be illustrated. COC 1 is to prepare and cook hot meals; COC 2 is to prepare cold meals, and COC 3 is to prepare sweets.

In line with the aforementioned skills in preparing varied meals, the students have delineated their excellence and knowledge based on their rough training through oral questioning. Director Lennie Jaca has expressed her pride with the takers after the recently conducted activity, saying: “Our SHS students NC II passers are now assured to get the job they really wanted.” Moreover, the SHS Academic Head, Mr. Kevin Aaron Peralta, expressed his gratitude for the opportunity given to the SHS learners in bracing them to be competent in the stated field. Both of them also took into account all due labor shared by the Focal Person of the SHS, Mr. Charles Justine Dizon, in coordinating with the parents and students from the very onset up until in making the event a successful one.

The Mabalacat City College indeed fulfilled its vision in terms of quality education and training in various ways. Generally, the project was all but an exemplification of passion and excellence. The partnership between SHS and CAAD has impacted the lives of the students by providing them with life-long skills and opportunities through the NC II.
