The Board of Industrial Training (BIT) is gearing up to launch its training programmes for 2024 in April, with a focus on Region 10.
As preparations are underway, a new list of training opportunities will be announced by the end of this month.
More Guyanese residing in Region 10 will have the opportunity to access various skills training through the BIT programme for 2024.
Tenisha Dennis, the BIT Technical Officer for Region 10, has been assigned to work with a new batch of trainees, bringing her expertise to guide individuals towards further development.
With experience working with over 1000 trainees in various skills, Dennis is well-prepared to support more people in their pursuit of skills enhancement.
BIT training offers two categories of programmes, with applications welcome from interested individuals.
One of the highly sought-after programmes is Heavy Duty Machine Operation, which continues to receive significant interest from applicants.
Despite the presence of a substantial waiting list, Dennis encourages interested parties to submit their applications, as opportunities may still be available.
The new list of training programmes will be unveiled by the end of this month, with training sessions set to commence in April.
Additionally, BIT provides a travel stipend to successful applicants, facilitating their participation in the training programmes.
This initiative underscores BIT’s commitment to enhancing skills development and empowering individuals with the necessary training to thrive in various industries.
