Minister Deodat Indar along with officials and students at the training exercise
The Guyana Oil and Gas Energy Chamber (GOGEC) on Friday opened its complimentary training programme for secondary school students across Guyana.
In 2022, GOGEC trained over 1000 students in “Opportunities in the Oil and Gas Sector”. By year-end, students from 40 schools across the country will be trained.
On Friday, students from The Bishops’ High and St John’s College were the beneficiaries of this training programme, which was sponsored through the initiative of Damian Blackburn and the Guyana Telephone and Telegraph Company (GTT).
Friday’s session was conducted by the President of GOGEC, Manniram Prashad, along with Matthew Scharf from ExxonMobil Guyana; Wilson Herrera from Guyana Logistics and Support Services (GLASS) and the Minister within the Public Works Ministry Deodat Indar, who gave an extensive overview from the discovery of oil in Guyana to present day.
In addition, Joel Bhagwandin and Dr Carlin Hanoman were part of the session.
