Oxford University Donates to Helps International (HINT)

by Leave a Comment

the Wotolo IT Training CentreThe Learning Technologies Group of Computing Services at the University of Oxford has donated the sum of 500 British Pounds towards the establishment of the Wotolo IT Training Centre.

Because of a large influx of students into our IT Training Program, it became necessary to set up a Centre dedicated entirely to the training needs of the communities in which we work so as to decongest the current centre at Bonduma. The new Centre is only about 100 meters away from the current one and so eases management.

However, the total amount of money needed to completely setup the Centre is 3,800,000 FCFA (about $7,600)
