PARTICIPANTS

All courses/ trainings are open for everyone, especially those persons involved in and planned to involve in social economic and intellectual works. Indeed there is a selection but that is only a way to determine whether the candidates needed some remedial course or special preparation. Though the formal education background was not a requirement for selection, however formal education of the Senior High-school or its non-formal equivalents is required. There is no limitation of minimum and maximum age, however, the lower age base is at least 18th year old, while the maximum age of the candidate at the most is 70th years old. We are promoter of gender equality, peaceful living or non-violence, pluralistic ethnic and religious backgrounds, thus we expect the candidates should embrace the same values.
