The training program covers sectors that offer real employment opportunities:

  • Basics of Natural Cosmetics and Essential Oil Production
  • Digital Marketing and Promotion of Products and Services
  • Graphic Design and Digital Printing
  • 3D Modeling and 3D Printing in Creative Industries
  • Digital Transformation and Business Process Automation

What does the program offer?

Eligibility requirements

Women over the age of 18 are eligible to apply for the public call, including:

  • unemployed women registered with the Employment Agency of Montenegro (with or without work experience)
  • employed women who are at risk of losing their jobs and wish to further strengthen their skills in line with labor market needs

The number of places in the vocational training program is limited. Submitting an application does not automatically guarantee participation in the program. After the public call closes, applications will be assessed, and candidates will be selected based on their motivation, labor market status, alignment with the needs of the planned training programs and employment opportunities, as well as the availability of project funds.

THE APPLICATION DEADLINE IS FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 18, 2026.
