What programs would you include in the training schedule in an effort to change employees who had worked under the old planned economy SOE conditions into more dynamic employees able to operate effectively under new market economy conditions?

Programs that could be included:

Programming - this is one of the safest professional paths fro any person, because the need for programmers exists in almost every economic area.

Personal finance - the employees may not know many things about how the economy and personal finance works in a market economy.

Labor law - some basic knowledge of labor law can help employees understand their contracts, obligations, and rights, once they land new jobs.
