TYPHOON Ondoy’s floods destroyed a lot of vehicles and household appliances of the victims. After doing the initial steps of cleaning, drying, and disconnecting power sources, the owners are ready to bring them to reputable service shops for repair or restoration.

How can the owners know which repair shop or service center can deliver the quality service work to their vehicles and appliances? Is there a way to ensure the performance of service and repair shop?

Yes, there is a way to know where the quality repair shops are.

The quality of services a customer can avail himself of from a service and repair shop depends on the ability of its workers to meet the job technical requirements. Many service shops and repair centers do not put much premium on the skills qualifications of their technicians.

The role of a service technician is very crucial in the repair or restoration work on a vehicle or appliance since an incorrect procedure may endanger the life of the owner and his family.

To beef up the pool of certified technicians in the service and repair industry, TESDA conducts free assessment and certification in its network of assessment centers nationwide.

Certified workers, like professional engineers, have full accountability for the job they are going to perform. Both certified workers and professional engineers have shared responsibility and accountability on the project or job to be done.

The next time you bring your vehicle, appliance, or electrical/electronics equipment to a service shop, always look for a TESDA certified technician to do the service or repair job. You can be sure he will do it best.
