Program
LOIC stands ready to provide marketable skills through its vocational education and training programs that are inclusive of job creation and strong based psychosocial counseling. All Programs are diversified and tailored to bring economic and personal benefits to the targeted beneficiaries.
The LOIC courses are arranged in modules arranged around 25% theory and 75% practical work. Training is completed by a course in Small Scale Enterprise Development and a curriculum in Life Skills offered to all classes. The curriculum is planned for twelve months of in-center training that will provide the trainees with real life work situations and challenges where they will put the knowledge and skills acquired into practice. It is followed by on-the-job training (OTJ) and job placement.
General objectives of the program are that all LOIC graduates can produce standard marketable products and services to sustain themselves, assist in the communities, and fit for gainful employment or establish own entrepreneurship.

Counseling
Career counseling as well as psycho-social and trauma healing counseling are part of the unique features of LOIC. Well trained counselors (male and female) will guide our trainees in all phases of the LOIC journey at all locations. This may include motivational training, drama, plays, singing and cultural dances. Also, trainees were educated on the importance and definition of leadership, human rights, self-esteem, and tolerance. Trainees are organized to elect monitors who assist in providing guidance for their classmates and their interaction with the training staff

Job Creation
On-the-Job-Training (OTJ) is a crucial part of the LOIC training cycle. LOIC seeks to fulfill the training requirements through practical experience. It enables the students to acquire hand-on skills and techniques for Job readiness. OTJ can either come as an internship or a full placement with an employer. It is during these three to six months period that LOIC staff keeps contact with the individual trainee and his or her supervisor on the job. LOIC has a variety of partners for OTJ.
