The Government Technical Institute (GTI) will soon be launching a six-week virtual preparatory course for prospective Diploma or Certificate programme students who do not have the required grades at the Caribbean Secondary Education Certificate (CSEC) level for admittance.
According to a Department of Public Information (DPI) report, the course, which begins early next month, only caters to persons who gained a grade 4 or 5 in Mathematics, English language, Physics or Chemistry at CSEC but have applied and have had their applications processed.
Upon the conclusion of the course, candidates are expected to write a qualifying examination, which will guarantee entrance into the institution once they are successful.
Classes are expected to commence on July 6th. Persons who wish to participate in the course should indicate their interest before said date.
The report also said the course is not a standalone one.
GTI’s welfare department is currently offering its students mentoring/counselling, resumé and interview preparation programmes as well as health talks online
For further information on the selected programmes, persons can email the institute at gti_guyana@yahoo.com or georgetown.ti@moe.gov.gy. They can also call telephone number 227-1197.
GTI provides training in Building and Civil Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Land Surveying, Science, Business and Computer Science.
