The Civitas Foundation for Civic Society, the Rural Assistance Centre (CAR), the EOS Foundation and Fundacion Abbant have organised free trainings as part of a European project called “Improving quality of human resources in the countryside and promoting entrepreneurship in non-farming activities”. The courses were attended by residents who learned about: starting a company, using computers, writing business plans, basics of accounting and business management, marketing and communications.
This is not the first initiative that PAPI Diosig had in the last years in order to help quality the unemployed. At the beginning of 2011, the centre’s headquarters hosted a course for people unemployed from the agricultural centre, in the area of using the computers. Some 14 people were taught how to use the computers and received ECDL start diplomas. PAPI infrastructure was used to teach them. Many used the diplomas and got jobs, while other were promoted in the same companies.
Also, PAPI Diosig will host courses to qualify people as commercial workers and construction worker for groups of 25 and 20 people, respectively. “The trainings are free and are beign organised following a partnership between the Diosig City Hall and the Ruhama Foundation”, RECL manager Diana Corbuţiu says. The project is called “Informed, trained, hired” and it was funded from the Sectoral Operational Programme Human Resources Development 2007-2013, which through the Carreer Centre of the Ruhama Foundation is organising free professional training for people looking for a job.
