Up and running!!

Finally!
Here we are to introduce the Jobortunity Training Institute in action!
We’ve been extremely busy, here in Moivaro, Tanzania to get the organisation up and running, but now we have something fantastic to show for it!

In a nutshell, this is what happened:
Jobinterviews with Tanzanian trainers and on September 14 we kicked off with Jobortunity’s Training-of-Trainers program. During this program we started the selection procedure to find Jobortunity’s first group of students. We sent out our student profile to local organisations to help us with the search. Lots and lots of students showed up!
After two more very active selection days, we held our one-on-one interviews with the 40 selected students.
Since two weeks we now have the students in the house and it is FANTASTIC! What an energy in the building, the students are very eager and keen to participate in all the activities being thrown at them. This is what the year filled with preparations and fundraising was for, we are now where we envisioned to be, with all sorts of new challenges and expectations ahead of us.
