The Sir Arthur Lewis Community College (SALCC) has a new, well equipped electronics workshop. The new workshop, funded by the LUCELEC Trust, was officially opened on August 27, 2015.

The facility will allow the College to introduce more specialized and a wider range of courses in Electronics and Electrical Technology including Video, Audio, Lighting, Security Surveillance and Instrumentation. It will also allow the College to accept more students into the programme.

Melanie Fedee graduated out of the St Lucia Electricity Services Limited (LUCELEC) Scholarship Programme this year. She is proud to have performed well enough to maintain her scholarship throughout secondary school and the Sir Arthur Lewis Community College. She credits the scholarship programme for keeping her focussed, determined as she was not to lose it even when challenged by A ‘Level Physics, which she suggests is “not an easy subject”.

Twenty (20) young Saint Lucians participated in the GAMA Learning Institute youth entrepreneurship workshop sponsored by St Lucia Electricity Services Limited (LUCELEC).

The workshop covered a range of topics including “The Anatomy of an Entrepreneur”, “Personal Vision” and “Overall Strategy”.
