Skills Training Center
THE NEED:
Wages in Cambodia are very low. However, young people possessing good English skills have a much greater chance of profitable employment in many areas of Cambodian society. By increasing their English skills or adding other languages and computer skills we are providing them with the ability to get a great job.
OUR VISION AND GOALS:
Skills Training Center has a clear vision based on 2 Js – JESUS and JOBS. We aim to give Cambodians a hopeful future by receiving decent jobs with a reasonable salary. We are also committed to sharing the love of JESUS with all the students and connecting them to church.
Our mission is to provide quality education in languages (English, Thai, Chinese), office and computer skills, leadership, and life skills for the local community.
The training is “free of charge” (a requirement by the Cambodian government for an international NGO operating in Cambodia). The goal is for all our students to be well-equipped and have a hopeful future in their careers.
Spiritually, we also try to connect the youth with classes offered by the church. We do this by building a genuine relationship between teachers and students. We share Christ’s love with them on any occasion and encourage them to join cell groups and LG (Life Guideline) classes for spiritual counseling.
Skills Training Center has greatly impacted the community and society through education and our supplementary courses. Our students become well-equipped and have a hopeful future in their careers. Many students become Christians when they hear the good news.
We have about 2000 students studying our free language, office skills, life, and leadership courses throughout the year and many become Christians. We believe providing these marketable job skills to youth and young adults, impacts them for the rest of their lives and benefits the whole nation of Cambodia.
