Skills development expo at Die Fakkel
Special thanks to Radio Pulpit for airing the event, office of the premier, Ward 55 Councillor Rashieda Landis, Die Fakkel High School management and all stakeholders for working with BCS to develop the youth of the south.
SOUTH JHB Career and Skills development Expo was hosted by Believers Care Society (BCS) in partnership with the Gauteng Department of Social Development at Die Fakkel High School sports ground recently.
About 420 young people attended and 32 stalls of government departments, private companies and civil society organisations showcased their products and services to the youth.
BCS will like to thank all the youth participants and the stakeholders for attending and participating in the expo. The purpose of the event was successfully achieved, as young people were exposed to different career opportunities and many linked already to economic activities.
