Short-term Skilling Program for Women in Thecho
Don Bosco Technical School Thecho continues to empower local women with skills, helping them achieve financial independence and self-reliance. Over the years, many local women have participated in our training programs and have successfully started small businesses in their communities. In addition to vocational skills, the training includes soft skills, personal management, and entrepreneurship development to equip women with the confidence and resilience needed to face challenges and take initiatives in managing their lives and families.
The current year too, we request your support in continuing this vital project for women. With your help, we can sustain and expand this initiative, ensuring that more women gain the necessary skills to improve their livelihoods and contribute to their communities.
The institute provides its own certification upon course completion. However, to enhance the credibility and employability of trainees, Don Bosco Technical School Thecho now requires participants to undergo the CTVET (Council for Technical Education and Vocational Training) examination to procure a government-recognized certificate. This certification will help trainees gain better job opportunities in formal settings, strengthen their professional standing, and improve their chances of successfully running their own businesses. By aligning with national vocational standards, the program ensures that women have access to wider employment prospects and are equipped with recognized credentials to enhance their career growth.
