 Intercom Programming and Manufacturing Company (IPMC), an Information Tech­nology Training Institute, has partnered with Nungua Senior High School (NUNSEC) to begin training of teachers and stu­dents in Information Communi­cation Technology (ICT).

This was in fulfilment of a promise made by the Director of IPMC, Gaurav Sharda to the school earlier to ensure that, among others, each student got trained in ICT before com­pletion.

He said his institute would help NUNSEC in the design­ing of its ICT laboratory with about 500 CD’s with study material of programming language offered to the School in addition to a free training for 109 instructors who will be ambassadors of the ICT educa­tion and facilitation.

Mr. Sharda said an inter­national sponsorship shall be offered to top performing students for higher degree programme and a low-cost programme offered to all the students.

He said NUNSEC shall be supported by free software support from IPMC with a low-cost of admin support from India when necessary.

Mr. Sharda said the training programme would take off this month and all the study mate­rials and books were expected to be free of charge.

The Headmistress of the Nungua Senior High School, Mrs Regina Naa Kai Tetteh expressed appreciation to the IPMC for what she described as a kind gesture and appealed that the support from the in­stitution would be continuous to help in improving the knowl­edge of the students in ICT.

She charged the students to avail themselves to make the best of the opportunity and put all the materials given to them to good use.
