DITO CME Holdings Corp.’s LUNA Academy has partnered with Jobstreet Philippines to provide an accessible online learning platform for Filipino job seekers.
DITO CME COO Donald Lim said the platform will provide users with “an effective learner experience and will also aid in delivering various training programs to add and provide more skills to Filipinos.”
“In the new and emerging economy, there is a strong need for us Filipinos to finally embrace the challenges and see these challenges as opportunities to expand on our competencies as a productive and forward-thinking workforce,” he said.
The platform will also offer access to certification programs such as those from Microsoft, Amazon Web Services (AWS), and Alibaba Cloud.
LUNA Academy is a joint venture between CloudSwyft and DITO CME.
“We believe an online platform like Luna Academy, delivered via world-class technology that provides fair and equal access not just to those in big cities or to those with the financial capacity to take a career break and study full time, and made available and affordable to most Filipinos, is the best way for us to help deliver a more positive future for all,” Cloudswyft Founder Dann Angelo De Guzman said.
In April, the company announced that it is working with Microsoft to push digital transformation through upskilling of Filipinos through online education platform LUNA Academy. Microsoft has been tapped as one of the primary technology skills content and certification partners of LUNA Academy, and will support the delivery of premium online technology skills training to Filipinos. “LUNA Academy is a Philippines-focused platform, initially anchored on job-ready digital skills, that facilitates the timely upskilling of a generation of Filipinos by providing them world-class certifications, preparing them for exciting career opportunities that the new economy will provide in the years and decades ahead.”
DITO CME is the communications, media, and entertainment arm of the Udenna Group.
