Is DICT Digital Skills worth it? The Crydd Verdict
CS 83Choose it if
You are in the Philippines and want free, government-backed training to build basic digital skills or start in ICT.
Consider alternatives if
You want a credential employers test for: TESDA's Computer Systems Servicing NC II for support work, or CompTIA A+ internationally.
Why we say so
Free and available nationwide, it is a practical first step for newcomers to ICT; completion certificates carry limited weight in hiring.
Market demand
Useful for digital inclusion and first jobs that need basic ICT skills; technical roles look for TESDA National Certificates or international certifications.
