OVERALL GOAL /MISSION
The goal of the project is to train teachers and other education staff in the field of ICT so that they are qualified for
digital literacy and the use of ICT in educational settings.
THE SOLUTION THAT HAS BEEN DEVELOPED
Many teachers in Kenya have limited qualifications when it comes to train other teachers and important education staff
in using ICT. There is also a lack of usage of ICT by practicing teachers within the education system. Therefore, the
project has established an online course for teachers to convey ICT competencies to enable them and other education
professionals to acquire the necessary skills to use them for the support of the learning process in elementary schools.
