ICT Skills Development | Open Source Migration | Web Development | Online Marketing

This is a skills exchange project that will improve the ICT skills of people interested in Information Communication Technology. The project engages young people in the development for the ICT sector and creates job opportunities. Skills development constitutes a critical part of the industry's growth strategy and special attention needs to be given to the issue of the scarce skills that both the public and private sectors would need to meet the country's growth objectives.

The South African government has identified large-scale state investments in infrastructure, small business and skills development as key elements of the government's strategy to boost South Africa's economic growth rate and create employment.

Government must play a key role in the Youth Skills Development Program especially in the Information and Communication Technologies by creating a sustainable relationship with local and international investors and urging them to boost youth skills development by the means of internship programs.

With our skills development program, we will increase the number of young people interested in the Information Communication Technologies sector. We are currently running this project in the Western Cape with youth from disadvantaged communities.
