English: Gatchalian's proposal also aligns with the Early Childhood Care and Development Alignment Act (Senate Bill No. 2575). The bill, which seeks to achieve universal access to early child education, also seeks the upskilling and reskilling of CDWs. Under the proposed measure, incumbent CDWs shall complete mandatory upskilling and reskilling training programs on early childhood education or ECCD. They should also pass a certification from the TESDA, which shall provide the assessment and certification free of charge.
