[kictanet] Weird Things ...Konza City?

[Walubengo J]

@Yawe,

u seem to b on the inside loop on this one.  Konza City, scuttled?  I had advised my boss to book a university lab there and now I might need guidance on what next? 

And thats me as a local stakeholder, what of the international stakeholders - what would they make of your statement?

walu.

Listers,
Are we seriously having this discussion, please leave certification to institutes of education such as Universities who already issue degrees in computer science and the like.
This is just another tax guzzling scheme like the Konza adverts being run on TV yet the AG has already scuttled the project, 
We are aware that all the great software applications developed over the past 3 decades have been done by enthusiasts or as Philip Ochieng recently clarified amateurs, a situation that is not about to change any time soon.
KICT eat in peace.
Regards
PS.  Liko lets go look for something more productive to do with our time, wachana na mambo ya certification na business plans.   Robert Yawe

Samsung launched its 2nd Engineering Academy with a local Educational Institution

The ICT Board on the other hand is working with a Foreign Institution to
 launch a Kenyan software development certification
