Training Programs
Fundación Avanzar offers a variety of Training Programs in which beneficiaries learn and hone a skill that will allow them to improve their standard of living, self-esteem, and financial situation. We offer most of these programs in two different skill levels, the courses build on each other from basic to advanced levels.
For the participants to apply their newly acquired skills successfully, all the courses are completed with a course in management, marketing, and sales. Participants are required to follow this course in order to advance to superior levels.
Offering training in different fields to underprivileged women has been AVANZAR’s main goal since 2009. Providing training is the best way to accomplish effective and sustainable progress. These courses are offered with the support of local organizations such as the Universidad del Azuay, the Universidad de Cuenca, the Universidad Catolica de Cuenca, the Hospital Vicente Corral Moscoso, Instituto Wissen, and the Sparkasse as well as a number of other professionals and volunteers.
