THE EU INVESTS IN PROFESSIONAL TRAINING (VET) IN TAJIKISTAN

We are glad to announce that AGT International’s contract in Tajikistan has been successfully concluded.

Last week, after the expiration of one year warranty, the FAC (Final Acceptance Certificate) was signed certifying the closure of the actions envisaged by the “Supply of equipment for general education and Initial Vocational Education and Training (IVET) for training centres in Tajikistan “.  With funding of just over one million euros, the European Union has organized, through AGT International, professional training courses in six high schools around the country: Dushanbe, Dakhana, Kulob, Kanibadam, Levakand, Khujand.

 

The goal was to prepare young people to professions as welder, electrician, turner and mechanic. The activity of AGT International was oriented towards the acquisition of specialized machines for these four types of professions and the training of teachers who in the future, will be able to train young people in the use of these machines and therefore the development of specific skills for these professions.
