All the best elements from each of the winning designs were incorporated into one unified logo.

“The new TESDA slogan demonstrates the agency's stronger advocacy to give our kababayans even better access to quality-assured and globally competitive tech-voc, and communicate to the public TESDA's aspiration to provide public service with a heart aligned with the administration's brand of governance and leadership ‘Bagong Pilipinas’,” Secretary Mangudadatu said.
