Hi, I’ve inquired at TESDA Davao last December and unfortunately it’s no longer being offered. I’ve heard tho there’s a training center in Tagum, but I have no idea what company, tried to Google it but my search was futile. DOH Davao also doesn’t offer it.
Hi, may I know how much did you pay for the course or was it completely free? Thanks.
Tesda pay for my 2 months training tantamount to 15k
Yes, the free training for Medical Coding was no longer existing in TESDA so luckily I finished its free training, In Tagum, I guess its the Siblings Solutions but they pay it to AAPC for online training which I finished also.
Thank you. Will check them out.
