As part of the Emplea Neuquén program, training in automotive electricity and electromechanics began for 36 beneficiaries.
The undersecretary of Employment Promotion and Vocational Training, dependent on the Ministry of Labor and Labor Development, began to dictate the new training in trades promoted by the Union of Mechanics and Related Automotive Transport Workers (SMATA).
The proposal is intended for 36 people who are unemployed or underemployed, and who receive the employability support incentive granted by the provincial government. The two courses that began this morning will address theoretical foundations and the practices necessary to carry out any work related to the different systems that are part of automobiles, specifically general mechanics and electronics.
At the beginning of the meeting, the Undersecretary of Employment Promotion and Vocational Training, Julieta Cuevas, highlighted the initiative and commented that “with Emplea Neuquén we have the objective of generating job opportunities and bringing the population closer to the world of work.”
Regarding training offers, he expressed that “agreements are made with unions, companies and educational institutions, seeking the quality of training and certification that generates opportunities for job placement. In this sense, we vindicate the role of unions, from what it means to accompany a worker in their training until the moment of entering a job.”
The training will last 120 clock hours distributed in theoretical and practical instances, with courses taking place three days a week during the morning and afternoon. They will be taught by teachers qualified by SMATA.
These new training offers are complemented by the initiative that trained 38 people in defensive driving and who received their diplomas and licenses during the week through the Emplea Neuquén provincial program.
