Training basic communication and computer skills for jobs

Program Details

Vocational Training is by definition training the skills needed for a particular job or profession. Through the program we are providing valuable skills needed for various jobs i.e cashier / data entry jobs at supermakets. Communication and Computer Skills are the two primary focus areas.
