Project description: 

Éducation in the Democratic Republic of Congo need to be improved by thé use of technology to attend thé international education standard. The country is very poor and thé national education program program failed to promote technology throughout thé entire country. There are no funds to supply thé program with technology equipment. Thé athor related problem is the lake of infrastructure,resources and others. There is a great barrier to education which is not free that still put many children and youth out of thé game. Only children coming from rich familiers have access to education. This exclusion is dangerous since that thé illiterate people are living in unemployment situation that push them to consume drug, alcoholic drinks,gang, join rebeluon groups, and illégal migration to go look for opportunities and goog lives abroad. Thé Dr Congo, especially in Goma province, thé training and facilités offertes in traditional schools and collèges have not cought up with the information age. In tragedy, thé computer classes offered by expensive expensive schools do not adequately prépare grafuates for such position. Often, within thé school système, there are no facilités for this building population to learn how to use computers to obtain any form of computer skills.
At graduation, thé majority of students have never used computer, let alone received any vocational training education. Inexpérience with computer technology narrows one market. In Goma due to lake of accessibility to computers to use, therefore, this education still theoretical and not praticable .
To develop the Dr Congo we need to provide access to technological facilités and the necessary training that will empower for disadvantaged individuals to get employment. This empowers them to meet their familly and community needs. Through our computer science and information technology courses, bright young Minds become better qualified and will bé able to obtain qualification technology courses, bright young mind become better qualified and will be able to obtain qualifications for jobs that were previously unavailable to them.
Our computer classes of students will provide Introduction to computer, Input and outputs devices, Basic mouse and keyboard Technics, Typing Master, and Microsoft application programs that are from Ms Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access, Publisher and Internet. Classes are set up so that two students have to share a computer so everyone has access to their own computer.
