WORK & INCOME
What makes our approach unique is the holistic, integral approach to empowerment for employability and entrepreneurship. We received our second recognition for this from UNESCO UNEVOC in 2023.
Our vocational training is practically-oriented, with 70% of the curriculum focusing on hands-skills, and 30% on theory). At centres, this is achieved through our Franchise Business Model, and for mobile training, through our Industry Attached Model. In both approaches we collaborate with local entrepreneurs and businesses.
