‘City & Guilds’ qualifications return to Guyana
The City and Guilds Institute has taken the lead in being the best provider of high quality vocational education.
With over 130 years of experience in crafting qualifications, the courses which are offered in over 80 countries, has been strategically designed to provide students with the practical skills needed to succeed in the modern work place.
The Institute which was in Guyana some years ago is now being resuscitated by the JTW& Associates Management Institute which is managed by a six-member board of governors.
Joycelyn Williams, Director of JWT& Associates.
Spearheading the programme is the training supervisor, Montgomery Chester, who said, “The institute allows us the opportunity to be pioneers for the improvement of our young people. The Programmes being offered not only targets the enhancing of skills but also the transformation of the individual into a well rounded professional in the field they so desire to study.”
Joycelyn Williams, Director of the Management Institute, stated, “The City & Guilds qualifications are widely accepted by employers around the world. However, recently the Institute strengthened its commitment to the Caribbean and the Americas with the opening of a Barbados-based Caribbean Office in April 2011. Today, we are proud to have the undying support and approval of the Guyana based centre by the regional office.”
The JTW& Associates Management Institute Inc. currently offers two main qualifications, English for Office Skills and, Customer Service which is based on the demand.
Williams noted that she is particularly excited about the Customer Service programme being offered as it seeks to make a very significant contribution in improving the “service delivered in Guyana.”
