Fifty women from across the country are set to begin receive training in the use and operation solar photovoltaic systems, beginning April, 2025.
This initiative is made possible through a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) which was signed between the Ministry of Education and the Guyana Power and Light Inc (GPL).

The women will be trained under the GUYSOL Women in Solar Apprenticeship Program.
