The Guyana Sugar Corporation Training Centre (GTC) has developed a 120-hours training programme for retrenched sugar workers, according to the Department of Public Information (DPI).

At a recent meeting with Minister of Natural Resources Raphael Trotman, School Programme Coordinator, Zamin Ally said the programme will be split between the New Amsterdam Technical Institute, the GTC and the Upper Corentyne Training Centre. DPI said that the meeting forms part of a needs assessment evaluation to determine how the GTC can train local content for the oil and gas industry.
