Training hones young minds

Bank Windhoek ‘s  managing director, Christo de Vries, officially launched the 2012 Candidate Bankers Training Programme this week. The initiative provides school leavers with an opportunity to pursue a career in banking. The selected trainees will participate in a six-month training programme. Two courses are run per year. The group will be the 20th since the programme’s inception. It was first launched in 1996. (Picture): De Vries (seated in the middle) together with the trainees. (Photograph by Johanna Absalom)
