United States-based all education company, Coven Works Inc, with operations in Nigeria, and Infinity Solutions, a Malawi based Information technology outfit, is set to provide cutting edge technology to enable Malawians acquire digital skills to become employable and grow the economy.
The partnership is based on an MoU signed on March 3 with Infinity Solutions with focus on providing Malawians 200+ hours of free learning on key emerging technologies as Artificial Intelligence, Big data, Cloud Computing, and Software Development.
Dr Charles Fodya of Infinity Solutions said: “It is beyond comprehension. To offer access to high quality education material beyond the confines of classroom blocks is a transformation that will go a long way for Malawi learners…’’
Country Head of Operations for Coven Works Mr Adedeji Dare said Coven Works has the framework to kick start training of top technology skills as Artificial Intelligence and Big Data to grow talents. In the last three years, Coven Works has graduated more than 4,000 and indirectly impacted 30,000 through its curriculum.
According to him, gone were the days when people survived as illiterates or with poor sets of skills on information and communication technology. He said, “To survive in this era, you must be at the top of the game, changing and trying out new things that suit the ecosystem” Dare continued.
Furthermore, he added that Coven Works Inc is partnering with Universities to help students acclimatize with necessary skills for information and communication technology. “This is of double advantage: apart from making the students well grounded on ICT – most often with one on one classroom interactions with clients and business partners -, it also offers students opportunity to be ready for jobs, since they have been equipped with proper know-how on ICT.”
With the recently concluded training of 130 Malawian students, Coven Works Inc. has revealed its new action plan to empower 5000 youths of Malawi over the next two years in providing the right skills gap in making youth become employable which promotes and supports Small & Medium Enterprises on information technology.
Malawians are encouraged to participate in the upcoming Data Analysis classes scheduled for the rest of the year 2022.
