In Order To Adapt To The Situation, The Dot Has Launched An Online Training Program, Dubbed As Dot Online Learning Courses Which Was Done Via Video-conferencing; Which Main Purpose Was To Upskill Tourism Stakeholders And Facilitate Transition To Recovery. Now, As Destinations Start To Open Up For Tourists, We Start To See Signs Of Hope That After A Long Period Of Difficulty We Are Ready To Bounce Back Again. In This Regard, The Department Of Tourism – National Capital Region Through Its Industry Manpower Development Unit Will Conduct A Webinar Series Titled “s.p.a.r.k.
