Mercy Commercial Vocational Training Center
Mercy Commercial Vocational Training Center is not just about offering a certificate; it’s about training the whole person—body, mind, and soul. We aim to form the students to be professionals and not just artisans; to train future employers, not just employees. Our co-curricular activities, which include sports and spiritual development, contribute to holistic training.
