Level up with DTI's Kapatid Mentor ME program
“Knowledge is power.” In business, this old saying is definitely true. With the right knowledge, you can bring your business to a whole new level of success. That’s why the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) launched a program they call, “The Mentor ME.”
The Mentor ME (micro entrepreneurs) program is a “coaching and mentoring approach where large corporations teach MSEs on different aspects of business operations.” The program is part of the bigger project of DTI known as KAPATID.
According to the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA), the number of approved building permits increased by 20.8%, from 24,400 new construction projects in the first quarter of 2013 to 29, 468 in the first quarter of 2014. Moreover, the current Duterte administration unveiled a three-year rolling infrastructure program (TRIP) amounting to P3.6 trillion from 2018 to 2020.
DTI aims to advance micro, small, and medium enterprises and improve their ability to become more competitive in their respective fields. DTI Secretary Ramon Lopez said, “With our strong desire to help the country's MSMEs and provide jobs to Filipinos, DTI and PCE-Go Negosyo conceptualized the Kapatid Mentor ME Program to serve as the entrepreneur's guide to a globally competitive enterprise."
The Mentor ME, which was launched last October 7, 2016, runs 11 weeks and includes weekly modules such as Operations Management, Human Resource Management, Financial Management, Accounting, Taxation, and Marketing, just to name a few.
The Philippine government recognizes the important role of MSMEs in the economy and how it provides employment to many Filipinos. Indeed, it is only understandable that this economic sector should be given the right attention and support if the country wants to sustain economic growth.
