❝Unlock your child’s creative potential and educate him/her with project management skill, by allowing them to analyze and direct a project with the help of ICT❞

It provides the participant with both fundamental and advanced understanding of the project management function using ICT.

Current Scenario

  • Although ICT has the potential to improve the education system of every country, this is not the case in some of the developing countries because of certain challenges. Technologies allow students to work more productively compared to the past; but the teacher’s role in technology is more demanding than before. ICT has the potential to transform the nature of education, but most developing countries face many challenges. The aim of the study is to present a review of the state of ICT, in the school system, in a developing country, by evaluating the current use of ICT, as well as the challenges encountered when introducing ICT in the classrooms. A qualitative and quantitative research had been used to collect data. Systematic sampling had been done in the schools in terms of region, location (urban/rural) and type of school (government, mission/church, or community).

    Project management and the information & communications technology (ICT) industry go together like jam and toast.

    Fostering a culture in which improvement becomes an inherent, continuous process can pay off quickly, as this mindset not only helps to raise the individual project and programme performance, but can also contribute to the overall bottom line. Essential best practices can enhance students’ approach to ensure more success throughout the entire project lifecycle.

     This programme provides the participant with both fundamental and  advanced understanding of the project management function and assists them in adopting an appropriate project management perspective with regard to the management of projects within their limit.
