The training program lasted four months and trained participants in 10 areas. This includes Refrigeration and Air Conditioning, Mechanic, Heavy Vehicle, Welding, Masonry, Gardening, Electrical, Building Maintenance, Carpentry, Plumbing, Construction and Site Supervision.
This is the fifth year of the program under an agreement signed with the Ministry of Economic Affairs and the Ministry of Youth Sports and Communities Empowerment.
