From the basics to beyond, @MaendeleoUganda & @MUBS_Entreship are guiding communities through digital literacy training that matters.

It’s not just about learning to use a computer, it’s about building confidence, independence, and opportunity in the digital age.#21DaysOfYelloCare #ConnectingAtTheRoots #DoingForTomorrowToday

"This training targeted school dropouts. unfortunately, some of them dropped out of the training too. I thank @MUBSICTCentre and @UNICEFUganda for organizing such an important training guided by the digital skills framework. " Mr. Ronald Ddungu, Principal Educational Officer @Educ_SportsUg

[Makerere University Business School @OfficialMubs]

119 participants graduated from the digital skills training program. The training started in May 2024 with a total of 274 participants organized in two cohorts. The trainees were vulnerable youths and adolescents from Kampala slums. The program was organized by @MUBSICTCentre in collaboration with @UNICEFUganda. We congratulate all those who managed to complete the program.

"Digital skills are as important as foundational literacy skills. This training is crucial because it targeted children who were outside of the formal learning process to enable them have access to digital basics. It's key because it comes at a time when @GovUganda has made the digital agenda a priority." Ms. Barno Mukhamadieva, Chief of BEAD @UNICEFUganda, at the digital skills training graduation ceremony at MUBS.

"A tool of 300 entrepreneurs expressed interest, of whom 36 indicated that they needed to be supported to grow their businesses, but 26 of the 36 passed quality assurance. 17 out of 26 made it to the boot camp, and after further assessment by our field team, only 13 businesses were recommended to #StepUpCohort pitch day".

I had an amazing time working with the science teachers from Koboko. We empowered them with the knowledge of integrating ICT into teaching and learning, and I believe they will make a huge impact with their new skills. @Educ_SportsUg and @USEEPUg contracted @OfficialMubs to implement the project in different cluster centers across the country.
