PLA Training and Skilling Centre
Established as a social enterprise in 2017, our skilling and apprenticeship initiatives are anchored in the PLA Training and Skilling Centre, offering vocational courses, digital skills, technical programs, and entrepreneurship sessions.
Community Learning Hubs
At our Vocational Training and Skilling Centre, we believe that learning should be accessible, relevant, and rooted in the realities of the communities we serve. That is why we establish Community Learning Hubs — safe, inclusive spaces where youth can gain practical skills and knowledge right within their own environments. These centres are designed to empower young people, especially women and girls, with vocational training that leads to meaningful employment and entrepreneurship.
Climate Literacy
Climate literacy modules are now built into our curriculum, covering climate change awareness, sustainable practices for everyday life and business, green entrepreneurship, and innovation.
Information Technology
All our modules have an information technology component, with an option of a standalone module for those interested in technology.
