A pilot course for 200 young immigrants from Soviet Georgia has been established by the Jewish Agency and the Absorption Ministry in Jerusalem to train the newcomers for skilled jobs in the building trades. The Georgian youths were selected for the pilot project because Georgians generally have had difficulty adapting to industrial or agricultural work in Israel.
