10th December, 2011 The vocational training center in Nowshera is a part of Prime Foundation and IDRF’s joint capacity building project for the women hailing from the flood affected regions of Nowshera and Charsaada. The main aim of the vocational training centre is capacity building of the women affected by the flood by imparting entrepreneurial skills to them so that they may be able to use these skills for running micro enterprises.
For duration of 3 months, 20 trainees are inducted in courses ranging from beauty care to tailoring and embroidery. As a mean of facilitating the trainees, efforts were also made to affiliate the training center with the trade testing board so that the trainees can be officially eligible for the testing board’s registration exam.
PSU-Prime is proud to announce that 17 students from the previous two batches took the registration exams on the 19th of November and with the grace of Allah, all 17 were successful in getting registration with the testing board. This success of the trainees bears testament to the fact that quality training was imparted to them by the center. Among the candidates, Samreen, Walayat and Quratul Ain secured 1st position in the Beauty care, Tailoring and Embroidery trade, respectively.
The staff of PSU-Prime would like to congratulate the successful candidates and hope that these candidates will make use of the training and earn livelihood for their families.
