PRINCE GEORGE – Representatives from CNC have just returned from a trip to Tanzania.
In February, CNC Heavy Duty Mechanical Instructor joined the group on a trip to Tanzania to launch the Shinyanga Vocational Training Centre’s Heavy Duty Mechanic Program. It’s part of a three-year commitment to the program. The aim is to create competency training, review curriculum and build a functioning workshop with five diesel engines for the students. It’s intended to expand the College’s reach.
“The idea of the trip was to launch the new Heavy Duty Mechanics for the Vocational School in Tanzania,” explains Romana Pasca, CNC’s International Project Planner. “We had the engines already there, but they didn’t really have the courage to start them, so they were waiting for us to start on the engines. We had guests from the Government of Canada, from the College Institutes Canada, industry, mining. There’s a big mine there to witness the opening of the program.”
This is part of a three-year commitment to the Vocational School in Tanzania. Meantime, Psca has travelled to Peru and Chile to look at similar opportunities there.
