Cagayanos intending to hone their technical skills are invited to be part of President Gloria Scholarship Program (PGSP).
According to TESDA (Technical Education and Skills Development Authority) Assistant Regional Director Belinda Labutong, there are still many slots available for those who may want to enroll short-term courses with institutions accredited by the agency.
