ICT Empowerment Centre

In order to ensure everyone embrace Information and Community Technology (ICT), we recently began a journey to empower young people within our host communities by opening up standard ICT training facilities in two locations. So far, we have graduated 18 young people who got skills in Microsoft Office Suite (Computer appreciation, MS-Word, MS-Excel, MS-Powerpoint, introduction to ethical use of the internet), CorelDraw Graphics and web Design.
