This year, the East Jakarta Regional Job Training Center (PPKD) will add seven mobile training units (MTUs) to improve the quality and quantity of door-to-door services to the public.

"People's demand for MTU service is increasing,"

East Jakarta PPKD Head, Teguh Hendarwan mentioned, additional MTUs were needed due to the increasing people's interest in participating door-to-door job training program which is conveyed through Musrenbang and direct letters.  

"People's demand for MTU service is increasing, so we are adding seven units this year. We had proposed 10 units, but only seven were approved," he conveyed, Monday (2/10).

According to him, these seven units will be used for Barista training (2 units), as well as culinary arts, pastry and bakery, multimedia, digital marketing, language, office administration (1 unit each).

These seven units were expected to be quickly realized by the winning vendor of the e-catalog auction thus it can be immediately deployed for this year's MTU training.

"In every Musrenbang, many people request job training. Since there are limited fleets, we are adding more fleets this year, enabling more equal distribution of job training," he explained.

Job training using MTU is targeted for utilization in residential areas, RPTRAs, offices, Rusunawa/Rusunami, and prisons.

Given the increasing people's demand for this job training, he added, MTUs will be allocated for 65 urban villages.

"In the future, MTUs will be stationed in urban villages and instructors will be deployed to provide training materials," he said.
