JHS GRADUATE TECH CAMP

IT For Youth Ghana, we are having a productive collaboration with the Ghana Education Service, Office of Ga West and Ga East Municipality and Ghana Investment Fund for Electronic Communications (GIFEC) to implement a training program for Junior High School (JHS) Graduates girls. These girls, who will soon complete their Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE), face a three-month waiting period before their results are released. This period presents a unique opportunity to equip them with valuable technological skills that will enhance their prospects by taking advantage of the technology world.

In today’s rapidly advancing technological landscape, equipping young girls with IT skills is essential for their future career prospects and overall empowerment. Our organization firmly believes that every young person, regardless of gender, should have the opportunity to acquire these valuable skills. By fostering an interest in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) among girls, we aim to bridge the gender gap in these fields and promote inclusivity and diversity. Our training will stimulate their interest in pursuing STEM programs in various senior high schools and to empower them take full opportunities in technological advancements.
