Meghalaya CM inaugurates CFI Centre at Umroi, announces foreign language training for students
Guwahati: Meghalaya Chief Minister Conrad K. Sangma inaugurated the Care For India (CFI) Centre at Nonglum, Umroi, in Ri Bhoi District on November 22 and announced plans to introduce foreign language training at the organisation’s nursing college.
The new retreat centre is designed to offer visitors a space to relax and reflect, while the nursing college continues to provide quality education to students from Meghalaya and the wider northeast.
At the inauguration, Sangma highlighted the state government’s plan to collaborate with CFI to offer foreign language courses at the institute.
The initiative aims to help young people access overseas employment opportunities in the healthcare sector and support their families financially.
“We look forward to partnering with them to introduce foreign language training, enabling our youth to explore overseas job opportunities and support their families,” Sangma said in a statement on social media.
He noted that nursing and healthcare services are generating significant employment prospects for young people in the region and expressed appreciation to CFI for creating these opportunities.
He added that the collaboration would strengthen their shared goal of empowering youth and serving the community.
The Umroi nursing college has been training students for careers in healthcare, a sector that continues to expand employment opportunities in Meghalaya and the northeast.
