Trainings
CAMED believes that training plays a critical part in helping
individuals onto the path of a successful business. We extend
invitations to our clients multiple times a year to participate in
professional training programs tailored to suit the individual
industries in which our clients work, ranging from agricultural
pursuits to small-business management.
The
trainings equip participants with innovative and practical training
tools that are integral to the successful management and growth of
their small businesses. In addition, CAMED actively seeks to network
its clients with others who can offer guidance, advice, or partnership.
These connections provide an invaluable resource to our clients and
improve their ability to realize the success of their business.
These initiatives also allow for the opportunity to
minister to the business community in Moldova and spread the Word of
God to a society dominated by Orthodox traditionalism. The trainings
provide a platform for discussions about purpose in one’s work, which
opens a dialogue to talk about faith.
Over the course of 2008, CAMED held six trainings and hosted over 200 participants. Sessions were presented on a variety of topics, including:
- Time Management
- How to Start a Successful Business in Moldova
- Success and Failures in Running a Business
- Human Resource Management
- Developing a Business
- Conflict Management
In 2009, CAMED has focused even more on its
training initiative. In fact, over the course of half a year, we have
already hosted five training events, with six to eight more planned by the end of the year.
The highlight of 2009 was a national conference
organized by CAMED to discuss the value of Christian business in
Moldova. The conference was comprised of nearly 100
Moldovans—Christians and non-Christians—with representation from all
evangelical denominations that are present in Moldova. The goal of the
conference was to invite Christians to be involved in areas of
social-economic work in the country, while disbanding the
Soviet-influenced stigma that work is a “necessary evil.” Through
hosting more conferences in the years to come, CAMED hopes to ignite
the Christians of Moldova with motivation and inspiration about how to
use their business effectively for both the economy of the country and
the Kingdom of God.
