Family Island Junior Achievers Visit BTVI Campus Posted by BTVI Thursday, 2008-February-28 The Bahamas Technical & Vocational Institute (BTVI) hosted a group of 150 students of the Family Island Junior Achievement program on February 22nd.
BTVI encourages high school students to begin thinking about the advantages and opportunities a post secondary education would provide them. Our goal is to foster the interest among students to pursue a career in the Technical and Vocational fields, said Sean Adderley, Public Relations Officer at BTVI. We are pleased to provide Junior Achievers with an inside look at the programs offered at BTVI and how the programs translate into viable career opportunities for the future. The students were welcomed to the campus by Dr. Iva Dahl, Manager of BTVI. They were informed about new programs and plans for the restructuring of The Institute. We look forward to seeing you all enroll in the Fall Semester. The students toured the campus and had a chance to interact with BTVI students in the class room. Bahamas Technical & Vocational Institute works with Ministry of Health on workplace training Posted by BTVI Thursday, 2008-February-21 The Bahamas Technical and Vocational Institute's (BTVI) Customized Training Program allows for the training and the professional development of staff in the areas of technical and soft skills. During the three (3) week session at the Ministry of Health (MOH) employees were exposed to janitorial techniques to enhance their work productivity, along with an Employability Skills component that provided each employee with practical steps to Conflict Resolution, Interpersonal Interaction, Work Ethic Improvement and Professional Grooming. Mrs. Raquel Bethel, an Instructor of Industry Training for BTVI said: "This experience has been very rewarding. The opportunity to observe the blossoming of students from reluctance and resistance; to acceptance and change, has been one that I will always remember". MOH commitment to workplace training and basic skills is nothing less than visionary. Employees were able to develop both their personal skills and knowledge of their field, and MOH will reap the customer service benefits of this as the programme continues. It is also an investment in the organizations success and competitive edge. BTVI look forward to working with MOH on this exciting approach. Previous page | Next page
