The Hinterland Employment Youth Service (HEYS) programme has commenced its year-long training programme in Hururu Mission Berbice River, GINA said. The 20 participants, ages from 15 through 35, saw the training as another opportunity to have a more productive life.
The first six months of the one-year training programme will see participants undergoing theoretical training in capacity building, English and mathematics, life skills, agriculture, tourism, entrepreneurial skills and sewing and welding, GINA stated. The latter six months will see them practically putting what they learnt into practice.
