Huawei Hosts ICT Training For Students Online

Huawei Technologies says it has not relented on its efforts to ensure Nigerian students are trained in core Information and Communications Technology skills in the face of the Covid19 pandemic.


The company in a statement said it had moved its classes online, engaging hundreds of students that registered under its Authorised Information and Network Academy across the country on their computer screens from the comfort of their homes.



The Huawei Authorised Information and Network Academy in collaboration with more than 70 universities in Nigeria was established to train students for free in the latest internationally relevant ICT skills in subjects such as networks, cloud computing and big data.



As of today, Huawei said over 10,000 Nigerian students had benefitted from the programme.
The Head of IT Technical Support Unit, Kastina State Institute of Technology and Management, Mr Lawal Alassan, who is also a Huawei Academy Instructor said his first batch of online classes had between 50 and 75 students from different educational institutions across Nigeria.
