1. Accelerated Skills Training โ Replace four-year degrees with intensive, modular certifications that quickly turn out-of-school youth into job-ready talent for Palawanโs hotels and resorts.
2. Digitalization โ Give marginalized youth and existing students digital literacy and hospitality tech skills so they can compete for tech-driven roles.
3. Entrepreneurship โ Help graduates start their own eco-tourism or artisanal micro-enterprises, boosting local livelihoods and strengthening the tourism supply chain.
