CAPACITY BUILDING WORKSHOP FOR NAIROBITS BY ECABO on 17th and 18th October



NairoBits has partners (Sasol and Ilker) in the Learn for work project and in the past meetings with her networks she met Dutch professionals/universities who helped Sasol and Ilkerin with construction. And in the same breath she sought to find the same treat but this time Dutch professionals in ICT industry. NairoBits concerns were that its concept didn’t fit in that mould of construction and therefore she requested to be linked with a partner within her core business.


NairoBits request for support/partnership was based on the areas of design and development because she worked with Joomla, PHP and MYSQL when making CMS websites. If there was a possibility to have a relevant linkage with school/professionals that did this kind of works, it would be more relevant to learn from each other as this was within what she did.

As a result of these prior meetings NairoBits is hosting ECABO who is the Dutch ‘Centre of Expertise on Vocational Education, Training and Labour Market’ for the economic/administrative, ICT and security professions. It is recognised by the Ministry of Education, Culture and Science, and a major proportion of its statutory tasks are funded by the government of Dutch. ECABO will be facilitating a design and development workshop attended by NairoBits training staff for two days. The workshop will be conducted within the facilities of NairoBits from morning to evening.
