“According to the Dr. Patricia Rodie, a lecturer in education at the University of the South Pacific (USP) School of Education the training targeted the untrained teachers in Choiseul and Western provinces.

“The aim for the project is to upgrade them, give them qualification so that they can be involved in teaching service,” she said.

“Dr Rodie said the first cohort of training started in July and August last year with two more trainings being conducted in November and December 2019.
