As part of its mandate to champion Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) in the Philippines, the PPP Center continues to implement a strategic capacity building program designed to enable and empower implementing agencies (IAs), the private sector, and other stakeholders to successfully process and undertake viable PPP projects. Through targeted and customized trainings, the program ensures effective processing of projects at each stage of the PPP lifecycle.
The National and Local Capacity Building Divisions are tasked to deliver PPP capacity building activities (CBAs) for their respective target audience through diverse modalities, including in-person and hybrid trainings and workshops, online sessions, and self-paced e-learning modules.
This year’s training calendar remains aligned with the PPP Center’s progressive approach to capacity building. It features introductory sessions, processing of unsolicited PPP proposals, special topics on PPPs, and practical guidance for navigating the review, approval, procurement, and implementation stages of PPP projects.
All CBAs are free of charge, but participants must complete registration and meet training requirements. Some sessions may require outputs, and acceptance will be on a first-come, first-served basis.
For further inquiries, please email capacitybuilding@ppp.gov.ph or nationalcb@ppp.gov.ph for CBAs intended for national IAs and stakeholders of national PPP projects, or localcb@ppp.gov.ph for CBAs intended for local IAs and stakeholders of local PPP projects.
