The institution has short courses in carpentry, electricity and welding. for students aged 17–35.〔( The Catholic Leader 29 June 2003 )〕 When a dispute between the government and a group of 600 sacked soldiers erupted into violence on 28 April 2006, thousands of people immediately began fleeing their homes for the safety of the building of the institution.〔(Eureka Street JULY 24, 2006 )〕 In 2008 there were 170 students at Comoro, 40 of whom were girls. While most of the girls are learning word processing, there are three specialising in electrical wiring.〔(AD2000 April 2008 )〕 On February 11, 2010 the institution held a graduation in basic building skills of 106 previously unemployed young men. Most of these were school dropouts who used to spend their days sitting by the roadside wasting time. The basic building construction courses were in masonry, carpentry, electrical, metal fabrication (including welding) and plumbing. At the graduation they were presented with a certificate and personal box of tools. The institution was initiated and largely financed by the South Australian Government’s Austraining International and AusAID in partnership with Salesians in East Timor, the Australian Salesian Mission Overseas Aid Fund and East Timor’s SEFOPE – the government agency responsible for vocational training and employment. Brother Adriano de Jesus was the principal of the technical school in 2010.〔(East Timor: The Quiet Revolution 27 June 2010 )〕 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Don Bosco Training Center」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
