In a bid to become self-sustainable, the Training Centre<\/a> has developed micro-businesses which not only aim to add to the bottom line, but also provide students with a way to practise and develop as well as giving them a first-hand experience of the world of commerce.\u00a0There is currently 2 production workshops.<\/p>\n

The milling area exploits the wealth of locally available grains and beans to make a wide variety of products, all of which are traded beneath the name “Llagtaymanta” (yag-thai-MAN-ta),
\nwhich means “of our earth” in Quechua, the language of the Andes.<\/p>\n

There is also a sewing workshop which makes all kinds of clothes under the name “Funky Pacha” (PA-cha) which combines English and Quechua to mean “funky clothing”.<\/p>\n
