Myint & Associates Offshore Supply Base Limited (M&AOSB) helped ten of the community stakeholders complete basic welding training (one of M&AOSB’s CSR Training Series for FY 2019-2020) successfully. The chosen trainees of the community acknowledged the support of M&AOSB for the completion of the welding training at the Skills Training Center (Pathein) in August 30, 2019. All trainees showed great diligence in their training both theoretically and practically. They passed their one-month training period with great effort and had a lot of fun in the process. They also mentioned their willingness to achieve the National Skill Standard Authority (NSSA) certificate, which is recognized by the ASEAN labour market. The trainees shared how much they enjoyed the training and how they plan to apply their training knowledge in the future.

“I attended this training actively as it was a suitable training for my future job opportunities. As I was new in the field, it was challenging for me during the practical aspect but I overcame it smoothly with the support of the trainers and M&AOSB staff. I am very motivated to continue learning and improving my technical skills to pursue welding as a professional. I hope to apply the skills learned at the construction site and to eventually get my NSSA certificate.”

“I currently run a car body repair business and I attended this training as it can be useful for my business. Based on my previous experience working at construction sites, I can firmly say the training will provide us more job opportunities. It is very beneficial for me as I can take an exam for my level-1 electrical certificate while attending welding training here. I am very pleased with myself after the training and I will continue to attend other trainings too.”

“I have been operating a workshop for 6 years, but I never had a chance to learn the techniques properly. I joined this training as I realized there are many areas I can improve and some incompetencies to work on to provide better services to my customers. I believe the certificate will also open a door for me to get better job opportunities. After this training, I have learned new welding types and systematic ways of welding. I would like to learn more and to eventually possess the NSSA certificate.”

“This welding training was a great opportunity for me to learn an additional vocational skill. I will try to improve my skills constantly and I will utilize what I have learnt from the training to get a job related to welding after the training. Despite being my first experience, I was okay with everything because of the support of M&AOSB staff and the trainers. I hope to attend training up to the international level as it will help me to get a job with the skills, knowledge and attitude I have acquired.”

“I attended this training to be proficient in welding technical skills. We have learnt not only the actual lessons but also new opportunities to learn more about welding. I will share the training knowledge to the youth in our community and I am aiming for employment at the company by learning and improving my skills continuously. I am satisfied with the completion of my study and I have an ambition to get my NSSA certificate and I have an idea of how I can apply my new found welding knowledge in business.”

“I have been working as a welder for nearly 3 years but this training helped me a lot in improving technically. I will keep on learning the skills until I can start my own business related to welding. Many thanks to the staff from M&AOSB and the trainers from the training school for organizing this. I wish to suggest the company to support other people like us.”

“I attended this training as I would like to learn systematically on welding and how to seize better job opportunities. I will continue pursuing to master the skills for my occupation andI tried my best in learning the practical and theoretical skills during the training. I’d like to attend another training for my NSSA certificate and computer training in Nga Yoke Kaung, too.”

“I have worked as a welder for two years but I did not have any certificate to prove my skills. It was only okay to run own business and there were no jobs available to apply at companies. I attended this training to learn the welding skills more systematically and to be certified as a welder. I learned a lot in terms of technical skills from this training. I hope to apply this training knowledge at the construction site and to get my NSSA certificate for welding. I would like to thank M&AOSB for its beneficial CSR Training Series.”

“I am an assistant to a welder currently. I attended this training to improve my skills as a professional. I believe more job opportunities will come to me after the training and I am endeavoring to work as a certified welder at construction sites. I like to attend welding training (level 2) and I would also like to pay back the gratitude of M&AOSB for its creation of job opportunities.”

“I intended to gain vocational skills from this training and improve my capacity. I had no background knowledge related to welding but there was not much struggle because of the help of the experienced trainers during the training. After this training, I will seek to be employed as a professional welder. I will share my training knowledge to my friends. I will try not only for my training completion certificate but also for my NSSA certificate.”
