Training for Life (TFL) is a special programme, organized under the auspices of the African Coffee Company and the Navigators, for Tanzanian youths, who want to be enlightened about real life skills.

 

 

TFL has the vision to transform Tanzanian Form 6 school leavers from being merely academic to becoming more aware of real life issues.

By so doing, you will become more effective as you go out into the employment pool, or into higher education. You will have the ambition to become more than a job seeker; in fact, you'll have the ambition to become a job creator.

You will become independent of welfare and support; you will contribute to society, not take away from it. You will add value to your work place by being a man or woman of integrity, charm, stability and of good reputation.

Our vision is to support our future leaders with the life skills which enables them to maximise their potential in the nation of Tanzania.

 

TFL COURSE STRUCTURE

The annual course is run in 4 consecutive months, starting in February or March.

During the first two months of the programme; in a lecture room situation, you will receive intensive teaching, which covers different disciplines, with the emphasis on a balanced life style. Subjects covered include entrepreneurship, personal finance, health issues and spiritual education.

Different professional experts, from Tanzania and overseas, volunteer to teach each specialised subject. On a practical basis, you will also participate in study tours in and around the neighbouring community.

The last two months of the programme is normally comprised of time for social placement and community work, computer training and the opportunity (for Moshi based trainees only) to climb Mount Kilimanjaro.

WHAT DOES TFL DO ?

TFL focuses on helping you to formulate your personal visions, discover your talents, use your initiative and be optimistic.

TFL desires to help mature you into adulthood, with an inner desire to serve the community more resourcefully.

ARE YOU ELIGIBLE ?

If you are a Tanzanian youth who has completed Form 6 and is aged not beyond 24 years by January of the year of study, you can apply for this interesting course. The TFL organization committee makes a short list of the more suitable applicants, who are then invited for panel interview.

 

AWARDS

At the end of the programme, you will graduate with three different certificates: TFL Course Completion, Basic Computer Training and Kilimanjaro Summit Climb (for Moshi based trainees only). The certificates will improve your CV.
