The Regional Secretariat for the Economy, through the Regional Centre for Handicrafts, will organise a training course in English for regional artisans.
This initiative, which will carried out in collaboration with Azores Delegation for the Dissemination of Information Technologies, will have a length of eighty hours, divided into a thirty-hour module on Basic English and another of fifty hours on sales techniques.
The organisation of this training course follows the increasing adherence of Azorean handicrafts companies to the regional network of handicrafts fairs, implemented by the Regional Secretariat for the Economy, which have been taking place during the main summer festivities.
In order to caver a larger number of artisans, the course will be taught in three editions to be held on the islands of São Miguel, Terceira and Faial.
