Binh Duong Provincial Center of Vocational Training for People of Disability (CVTPD) has offered people of disability the conditions of literacy and vocational training to be integrated into the community. The Center has become a house sheltering and nurturing dreams of the disadvantageous.Kind-hearted instructorsThe Center is supporting 87 trainees in 6 majors of garment making, weaving, silk printing, computer science, electro-mechanics, and electronics.

An instructor is doing step-by-step instruction to her trainees The perception of those trainees is rather different.Ms. Nguyen Thi Lai, an instructor of weaving class said: “We have 27 trainees here. They are disadvantageous of literacy, thus, it takes time for them to follow. It has been great challenges at first until we know by the heart.”The challenges that Lai and many other instructors have been facing are common while instructing people of disability who are at times unfamiliar with vocational training and feel forced to follow.Ms. Nguyen Thi Loi, a long-time instructor of garment making at the center from its establishment said: “Newcomers are stubborn for not listening and doing whatever they want to; thus, I have to fall for tricks to persuade them to learn.”In such a special learning and teaching conditions, thorough devotion and passion for the career are the must.Instructors at the Center have their heart for each trainee for their sentiment and love for the career.Ms. Nguyen Thi Lai was an example of devotion when she left Viettel Telecom to assist the Center or Ms. Nguyen Thi Loi who has been with the center from its establishment.Only paid nearly VND 3 million a month, each instructor here is staying with every thorough instruction to help their trainees.Ms. Nguyen Thi Loi said: “We cannot give up seeing them like that. They are very reluctant to meet strangers, causing the changing of instructors very hard; however, no one really wants to leave them halfway. Besides, the smiles on their faces encourage me the most.”To help with product sellingCurrently, the products made by trainees of the Center are bought by visiting organizations and individuals. Thus, the stored products are growing in quantity although leaders of the center are seeking for buyers.Mrs. Dang Thi Minh Thu, Deputy Director of the Center said that the good products made but to sell them is another issue.When completing a course, the trainees may be improved in terms of skills; however, they may eventually fail to us them.Some may just return to their families or end up with family-supported shops and fewer of them are chosen to factories.In such cases, they lose their job opportunities in hope that the can make their own living in the pathway of community integration.Facing such bundle of challenges, leaders and instructors of the Center are seeking buyers while helping their trainees to find jobs after finishing the courses.Accordingly, they can get on by their own by abolishing their sentimental complex to be more confident as a society-beneficiary individuals. However, they should the efforts of the whole society giving them chances to lead their own ways.As Nick Vujicic once said: “In real life, nothing is impossible.”Reported by Do Tuan – Translated by Vi Bao
