Pu Sho-un (蒲首恩), a new immigrant from Uganda, enrolled in the bakery marketing pre-employment training course offered by the Taichung-Changhua-Nantou Regional Branch of the Workforce Development Agency despite the fact that his listening, speaking, reading, and writing in Chinese are subpar in order to realize his dream of starting a business with his wife. Pu Sho-un received assistance from several parties to finish the training program, and he is now employed as a baking assistant in a well-known bakery at Lukang. His employer gives him great marks for his work performance.

This year, the Taichung-Changhua-Nantou Regional Branch of the Workforce Development Agency launched a total of 4 pre-employment training courses of the "Classic Baking and Marketing Training Course," giving about 120 participants an average employment rate of over 80% following training. Pu Sho-un, a native of Uganda who married, relocated to Taiwan. He enrolled in this course in order to swiftly assimilate into local society, ease financial strain on his family, and pick up new skills.
Pu Sho-un acquired professional skills throughout the course of the three-month training program, including baking bread, cakes, Chinese and Western snacks, and learning about product marketing and packaging. The teacher also commended him for his serious and positive attitude. Pu Sho-un thanked the instructors for their leadership during the training and encouraged new immigrants like him not to place limitations on themselves.
