POSITIVE TRAINING PROGRESS

Following the procurement of Tailoring and Carpentry tools and equipments, there has been a positive enrolment and training progress in the two programs. For the tailoring program we have 17 students currently attending training, this consist of 6 women and 11 men while for the Carpentry we have 3 students who registered.

To cop up with the number of students enrolled in the tailoring program, there are two training section that is, morning classes housing 9 students and evening classes housing 8 students. This has made it easy for the tutor to handle all of them at the same time while they share the six machines. The Carpentry training will begin on Monday 26^th May 2008 as the registration ends on Friday 23^rd 2008; there is hope that at least 10 students will the enrolled for the program. By next month we are optimistic that we shall begin selling our products from both tailoring and carpentry programs.

In the picture is Ayera Munguryek who is one of the female students enrolled for tailoring program in the evening section. We have realized a low enrolment rate by female; this however calls for a wide-ranging sensitization campaign so as to encourage the female to enroll in big number alongside the male.
