After going through various selection processes, starting from administrative selection, question selection and interviews, I was declared to have passed to take part in this training. This is an opportunity for me to learn the procedures or techniques for making home furnishings products. Because through this training I will have the opportunity and the basic fundamentals to jump into the world of entrepreneurship.
