Training of web designers – Tirana, Albania

From middle of, towards end of June 2017 we have spent 9 hard working days in Tirana – Albania. There other group of 15 youth larders / peer multipliers have learned how to create, work with and administrate brand new web pages based on WordPress platform.

It was a quite worm summer and it was hard to work in conditions that we had, but our participants give extra efforts and we have succeed to build up technical capacities of all participants. Some of them never before worked on development of web page, regardless of platform to be used and some others had some experience in programming and web development. We used this to boost up group work and share participants experiences.

We also visited  http://www.sitel.com.al/ and talked / had a good discussion with CEO’s of https://unnitech.net/ and  http://intech.al/

After starting jitters participants started to ask questions from CEO’s which was continued with quality discussion and sharing tips & ticks. Also all participants get an invitation to present their skills and acquire a job position in these companies regardless of the country where they are living.

In Tirana we had for first time interaction with diplomatic institution. We were surprised with interest of Serbian and Croatian Embassy in Tirana with our project. We didn’t plan this but we had a good cooperation / communication with representative of Croatian Embassy Mr. Zvonko Picukarić who have visited us on training site. Serbian Embassy was even more interested in our initiative, so H.E. Mr. Zarić has invited us on a meeting in Embassy where we had very constructive dialogue.

Beside technical work we had some time to get to know Tirana and Albanian youth. Thanks’ to our host we have learned a lot and had a good time in Tirana. Don’t worry Tirana we will come back..
