Training Centre in Malawi

27/9/2017

0 Comments

 
Since its inception in April 2016 the Computers For Malawian Schools (CFMS) IT Training Centre has proved invaluable to local schools and the wider community in Malawi. The Centre is in Blantyre, the country's second largest city, and offers basic IT training as well as helping to provide IT facilities to local residents.

​Since April 2017 53 students have registered for classes following the Malawi national curriculum with the aim to write MANEB examinations. In addition there are walk in students who come to learn basic computer skills and Microsoft Office. The centre gives access to computers to a range of ages the youngest being 12 years old and the oldest being 63 years old! 

​Sabina our local programme manager comments that "A lot of people are longing to have ICT expertise bearing in mind that every office job requires computer knowledge".

In the next six months we will be extending the IT training centre to accommodate an even greater numbers of students.
