Deelite, sonol'artista, thank you for watching!
We have our programs for unemployed people in Specialty Finishing - now the programs are 12, 24 and 40 week long full time. After the in-class segment we have 8 week wolunteer projects for our students - mural painting, restoration, straight painting, usually in places which nobody wants to paint - shelters and social housing. After that students go for employment - from 9 to 52 weeks. After that we have 52 weeks of self-employment program: 8 weeks in class + the ballance is subcontracting from us. By September we are planning to go international with our students.
All programs supported by Government - they are free for students. In 2008/2009 we started so-called Social Purpose Enterprise: getting contracts and for money earned enreaching our programming. For example, in 2009/2010 students painted about 250 housing units, appartments and townhouses, 11 buildings and about 60 murals. Not only Castles...
