(Togo First) - The National Employment Agency (ANPE) of Togo seeks to develop courses for youth who aspire to work in the construction and building sectors. The agency held last week a two-day workshop where the project was discussed.
"The project that brings us together for this workshop aims to develop curricula in promising trades, in the construction and agribusiness sectors. It was a long process that began two years ago, but it led to drafting a curriculum for these 10 trades," said Kossi Tsiglo, the ANPE’s new boos. "These projects are precisely in line with the strategic objectives of the ANPE to achieve the sectoral dynamics imposed by the government," he added.
Several actors of the private sector, in construction, public works, and agribusiness, attended the workshop to validate the new curricula.
"This is a huge step, and in the future, we must continue assessing the qualitative and quantitative needs of these sectors and adjust what is taugh," Tsiglo declared.
At the moment, the number of people who will be impacted by the reforms is unknown. However, the end goal of this project is to produce even more curricula that match other trades, in the same sectors - construction and agribusiness.
The Togolese government, let’s recall, in recent years, introduced new training institutions such as the IFADs which offer sandwich training in the following sectors: aquaculture (in Elavagnon), livestock (Barkoissi), and construction (Lome).
