In 2020, we developed an Effective Training Self Empowerment and Development Program

Workplace Learning and Development (L&D) is a continuous process in any organisation with ambition. Training not only upskills your workforce, but it also makes them feel like you are investing in them. Greater job satisfaction and a sense of unity then enhance work ethic and motivation.

We are on the road to Kidepo Valley National Park Uganda and later to other Eastern destinations of Bokora Matheniko , Pian Upe Wildlife Reserve and Sipi falls to enhance our skills and knowledge in nature and wildlife

Tour Guides are tourism professionals that lead their guests through the most interesting parts of their region. It is their task to entertain visitors to their region and to help them to interpret the sights that they are visiting.

It's our Duty at Field Guides Network-FIGNET to equip our members with theoretical and practical knowledge in their fields of work.

Happy International Tour Guides' Day to you all

Exam performances depend on the student’s time spent for preparation, the method used to study, way of answering, and his presentation.
This is how we concluded our week's first aid comprehensive training with Uganda Red Cross Society International Committee of the Red Cross at Town View Inn, Kabale
Results from today's assessment will be a mark to exhibit the usefulness and importance of such practical trainings.
Applause to Uganda Tourism Board-UTB for encouraging and sometimes supporting such practical trainings.
