Bridging the Digital Skills Gap and expand Digital Literacy in Zimbabwe
Welcome!
A warm welcome to ICTAZ School of Digital Technologies site!
This is a delivery vehicle for all training and capacity building activities developed or implemented by Information and Communication Technology Association of Zimbabwe (ICTAZ) and its partners. Its mandate is to bridge the digital skills gap in Zimbabwe. It was established in May 2023 as one of the key outcomes of the Educators ICT Conference 2019 held at Forest Hills Resort in Vumba.
Registered as a social enterprise, the Institute is designed to empower both individuals and institutions with the correct mix of skills to architect, deploy, build and manage emerging technologies in the ways that benefit society. Through coherent joined up capacity building and professional development programs, the Institute seeks to broaden and deepen citizens’ knowledge of new and emerging technologies, the application and integration of these technologies, and the administrative practices used in the effective management of these technologies in their day-today socio-economic activities.
Programs offered by the Institute provide a blend of theoretical content and practical application that utilizes a hands-on, reality-based approach to building digital competencies and skills. This allows society to deploy ICTs as tools and catalysts to drive economic growth, improve quality of life and develop home grown solutions to most pressing local challenges.
