Dondo — The "Dom Bosco" vocational training centre that belongs to the Catholic church in Kambambe municipality, northern Kwanza Norte province, has been implementing a program of refreshing trainers since last February to equip them with the basic education levels and their professionalisation in various trades and careers.
ANGOP learnt of the information this Wednesday, in Dondo city, from the director of the centre, priest Víctor Luís Cerqueira who explained that with this course, the institution intends to upgrade the technical-professional level of trainers and improve their training capacity.
The process is only experimenting blacksmithing, and then it will expand to other specialities such as carpentry, plumbing and so forth.
According to the religious entity, from this month onwards, the centre will have trainers from the Republic of Uruguay, Italy and Argentina, in the framework of the cooperation existing between the institution and the Silesian communities of Dom Bosco in these countries.
He highlighted that in order to avoid youths being dispersed after concluding courses the centre has been contracting that manpower to work in the institution.
The centre was founded in 2005 and has already trained 1,500 youths in the specialities of carpentry, blacksmithing, sewing, electricity and decoration, and twenty of them received high performance certificates.
