Interns training

58 Samoan youths complete training in preparation for internship

Two-day trainings each were held last week – in Upolu on June 8-9 at the SSAB Conference room, and in Savaii on June 11-12 at the Jetover Hotel Conference room.

The Internship Programme is an ongoing initiative that places unemployed youth in work placements for eight weeks.

The aim is to expose youths to a real work environment to acquire knowledge and skills through practical work experience, and allow them to explore a career interest, and build confidence. This is the fifth intake of the programme since it began in 2016.
