A beauty and wellness workshop aimed at creating employment opportunities and promoting financial independence among women was held at Orchid Café, Old Town, Zunheboto, on August 24.
The awareness programme was organised by Urban Company in association with YouthNet Nagaland, with the objective of introducing women to professional opportunities in the beauty and wellness sector and encouraging them to pursue skill-based careers.
A total of 11 participants attended the programme. The training and orientation session was led by Sentinaro Jamir, Category Manager, and Amen Jamir, Business Development Associate (BDA).
During the programme, the trainers explained the opportunities available through Urban Company's Beauty and Wellness initiative, including professional training in Bengaluru, accommodation and airfare support during training, and employment opportunities upon successful completion of the programme.
The programme highlighted that women between 18 and 40 years of age can apply, with no prior experience required. The initiative offers a two-month training programme covering beauty and spa-related skills, with participants being supported through the training process.
The initiative further highlights workplace safety, health insurance benefits and support for women entering the workforce. The trainers encouraged participants to view skill development as a pathway towards self-reliance, steady income and greater control over their future. The programme also sought to create awareness about opportunities for women from the Northeast to build careers in the organised beauty and wellness sector.
According to the organisers, selected candidates will undergo screening and orientation before travelling to Bengaluru for the two-month training programme, following which they can begin their professional careers.
Sentinaro Jamir, Category Manager, Urban Company noted that similar types of awareness and workshop activity have been conducted in all the districts to build trust in people's minds and this activity will be a continuous programme for the company.
