<div><font face="Bookman Old Style">Dear all, </font></div>
<div><font face="Bookman Old Style"></font> </div>
<div><font face="Bookman Old Style">How about that we call for a grand meeting
where we will do systematic brainstorming on the curriculum for the future ICT
educations here in Kenya ?</font></div>
<div><font face="Bookman Old Style"></font> </div>
<div><font face="Bookman Old Style">There are various very effective and
systematic brain storming methods which can be used in large groups to reach
consensus and conclusions in only 2-3 days.</font></div>
<div><font face="Bookman Old Style"></font> </div>
<div><font face="Bookman Old Style">How do we gather the necessary financial
support to make such an event take place for instance in January, we would in
that case advertise the event in the Digital Age Journal, January 2010 issue,
and we would report from the event in the February 2010 issue.</font></div>
<div><font face="Bookman Old Style"></font> </div>
<div><font face="Bookman Old Style">I would propose that we simply meet, every
one who have a positive interest in making Kenya a preferred outsourcing
destination for High Tech - for instance in Software Development - and then we
talk and systematically record what transpires..</font></div>
<div><font face="Bookman Old Style"></font> </div>
<div><font face="Bookman Old Style">Proposals welcome. We could have initial
meetings in our institute. I propose that we meet for instance on Sunday, the
8th of December 2009, at 14:00. Our address is View Park Towers, 16th floor,
Nairobi City. (Next to Anniversary Towers and opposite Alliance
Francaise.</font></div>

<div><br></div>I agree with the PS on the fact that we need to start from
somewhere in terms of standards. It is a high time we started putting a caveat
to guide towards best practice and good quality of the educational
requirements. on the same line, we need to start vetting the graduates that
come from the numerous universities with an IT based degree. Some of these
degrees produce half baked graduates.<br>LEO<br><br>

am meeting with KASNEB next week to consider a local equivalent syllabus.
Before we started CPA locally, we had to contend with ACCA for some
time. Bottom line we need standards now as we move into more IT
