The Computers for Zimbabwean Schools programme (CFZiS) works in conjunction with the Educational Technology Centre.

A mobile computer laboratory 'Big Blue' is equipped with 10 computers and tours rural schools without electricity. The process in Zimbabwe involves checking the computers, loading them with software and fitting modems to at least one computer for each school. Computers are normally loaded with Windows 2000.

Computers are allocated to schools by agreement between the Ministry of Education, ETC and CFZiS. Each school normally receives at least ten computers. Almost all secondary schools with electricity have now received computers.

To ensure IT trained staff for each school, teachers go on attachment to ETC to receive training in upgrading and maintaining computers, so they can service schools in their cluster grouping.

A Zimbabwean Internet provider has agreed to give schools one year's free access to the internet.
