The Trainer is the corner stone of the BASE project and in order to capacitate the trainers, SKILL TRAINERS EMPOWERMENT PROGRAM (STEP 1) was held at DB Provincial House, Bangalore on August 17-18, 2011.

Fr. Joe Arimpoor sdb-Director DB ARK, Delhi, and Mr. Vivek Kumar, DB ARK Delhi facilitated the two days training. The trainers from various centers of Karnataka were welcomed Fr. Joy Nedumparambil sdb, who also oriented the participants on the need for such a training programme. Fr. Ittira Mondoth, Rector, DB Provincial House invited the participants to shape themselves in the vision of Don Bosco. The concern of DB Tech is not only to ensure that the poor and unemployed youth get skilled and get a decent job and settle down in life but also that they are formed to be honest citizens, motivated and enthusiastic individuals for which the trainers needs to be well equipped. With this objective in mind, the core skills covered during the training included Interpersonal Skills, Team Work, Time management, Motivational Skills and skills to build up positive attitude.
