Default Can I say it this way?

Hello everyone

I'd like to ask if I can say it this way.

This report summarizes the results of the pretraining adaptation of Soft Skills trainings project.


The intended meaning is as follows: there is such a thing as Soft Skills:
Soft skills - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

And there are Soft Skills trainings. And also there has been a project for pretraining adaptation of Soft Skills.

It seems fine, KLPNO. I'd just take out the 's' on training.
