Three-hundred twenty new graduates and out-of-school youths can get an opportunity to earn, while being trained for call center jobs in BPO Philippines this 2012.

Aegis People Support and its training arm Aspire People Solutions have partnered with Asian College of Technology (ACT), Cebu Philippines for a dual training program called “Earn and Learn.”

Under the Earn and Learn program, Aegis People Support will work closely with ACT to train near hires.

The first batch of trainees; eleven trainees and six faculty members, had already started their one month training in ACT. They still have to undergo another two to three months training with Aspire People Solutions. The trainees would be paid a minimum of P305 a day as allowance.

This is the first dual training system implemented between an outsourcing company and the academe; the program would better enable and equip the academe to conduct trainings to would-be outsourcing employees.

“We are very happy about this program and we will be committing our support to them. This will help enable us bring the academe and industry closer. It’s good that Aspire decided to share their expertise with the academe on how to do trainings for call centers. We always welcome such initiative.”

-- LUISITA YEE, Provincial head, Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA).

The system aims to train 20 to 25 personnel from ACT every month. Aegis People Support also plans to partner with other schools like the University of San Jose Recoletos (USJ-R), University of Cebu and University of San Carlos to achieve their 320 target of trainees this year.
