14 complete training and employment programmes for leisure activity leaders and socio-health care workers

The Office of Local Development of the Consell de Formentera is pleased to report that 14 people have completed training and employment programmes for activity leaders and socio-health care attendants developed by the Balearic Islands Employment Service (SOIB) and Consell in the last year. Eight unemployed over-30s completed SOIB 30, a programme on socio-health care for dependents in social institutions, while six 16- to 29-year-olds completed SOIB Jove, a programme focused on leisure programmes and the Catalan language.

On a visit, Ana Juan, president and enterprise councillor of the Consell, praised students for successfully completing the training and wished them a productive future in employment.

The two programmes, which began 24 November 2022 and lasted six months, promote training and employment. Socio-health care students completed work practise at the Formentera Day Centre and seniors' residence, while those in the course for leisure activity leaders received on-site experience at the basketball and judo schools and Casal de Joves.
