Training Programmes
The employability of persons with disabilities can be enhanced through the training programmes which equip them with a variety of skills, ranging from work preparation to vocational skills, for work in open employment. Beyond vocational training, we also offer lifelong learning opportunities for both professional development and personal growth.
