The main comment received by trainees is that they learn to do things independently. They are expected to do things by themselves and therefore they do it.
Trainees often realize that they can do much more than they thought.
Some are especially happy to see they are acquiring new skills that will help them generate sufficient income or supplemental income to support their family. Upon return in their family and community, they are in a position to teach others new skills and know-how. They become trainers for their family and members of their community. As entrepreneurs, they become fully integrated in society and become active members of their community. They become full participants in the family's income generation.
