TRAINING COURSES ORGANIZED FOR UNEMPLOYED IN KAPAN
KAPAN, JANUARY 12, ARMENPRESS: Armenian Social Security Fund had
released more than 1 million drams for an employment center in Kapan,
the capital of southern province of Syunik, which will use the money
to organize computer training courses for 20 local unemployed people.
The course is part of a government supported program for teaching the
unemployed new professions.
The head of the local employment center told Armenpress that
several local companies said they will hire the unemployed after they
finish the two-month course. Participants will be given also
allowances, in the amount of an unemployment benefit during the
training. Sixty other unemployed, including 10 disabled persons are
set to have similar courses this year.
