"It is amazing the number of young children who want to participate in the TechKids Program. The potential we have to change the lives of young people, who have the longest productivity horizon, is myriad."

~Owerri Digital Village Center Manager


The TechKids program is offered to children between the ages of 8 and 12 years old and allows them to explore their own ideas, develop skills and build confidence using technology. Program duration is 3 months.

The goals of the TechKids program are to:

 

  • Generate interest in technology at a young age through projects based on children's own interests.

  • Teach young people basic computer techniques (such as keyboard and mouse skills) and basic computer applications (such as word processing).

  • To identify students with acumen for technology at a young age.

 

Students learn team building, communication, goal setting, teamwork, and problem-solving in a structured technology lab.
