Vocational trainers

If you are an experienced welder, electrical or mechanic engineer with experience of training and teaching, you can help to improve the quality of vocational training in developing countries.

You could be teaching mechanics in an all girls’ college in Nigeria, providing the students with a practical skill that will enable them to find work.

Providing on the job advice to your colleagues, you’ll maintain and improve the standard of electrical and electronic equipment in a hospital in Malawi.

Using your year’s experience of metalwork, you’ll provide vital training in welding, metalwork and blacksmithing to students in Zambia.
