Initiated by SIMC – Swiss International Medical Center SA, a high-level Chinese delegation led by the Vice-Governor of the Province of Fujian and President of the 8th Bureau of the Fujian Disabled Persons’ Federation, Mr Lin Ruiliang, visited the CFPS Le Repuis a few days ago. Since 90 years, Le Repuis has been developing its cutting-edge expertise in the orientation and vocational training of young persons with autism. More than 15 professions are currently taught at the Center.
The Vice Governor visited several workshops, such as carpentry, car bodywork and painting, car maintenance and preparation, production mechanics and graphic design and exchanged with the apprentices. He was then invited to a meal completely prepared and served by the apprentices.

CEO Philippe Zwahlen has assured the Vice-Governor of SIMC’s competence to take the lead on the implementation.
