Computer classes are always popular at AIL centers. Students are interested to learn for work and for pleasure. One center reported the students wanted another 15 days of instruction so they could go over the course again and keep improving their skills.

Stories tell the story of the impact these classes have.  One center manager had this to say, “We proud to have the people’s trust, especially females. This shows our success.  There are fewer job opportunities in Kabul nowadays but our graduate students get jobs. For example, two graduate students named Madina and Hussina from the center started their own computing course at home. They gathered the girls from their neighborhood and teach them for two hours every day with little fee, because they want to share what they learn with other girls and get some benefit for themselves. They thanked AIL for providing them the opportunity and will never forget AIL’s efforts for them.”  

Thank you for your continued support.

AIL promotes modern skills, including computing in its education curriculum wherever possible. Both male and female students want to learn computer use, internet skills and coding. They are interested and they know computing skills will be useful in the job market. In one month in Herat there were 218 students studying computing including 118 females. In Kabul, in that same month there were 153 computer students. 

WLC manager states, “AIL provides great opportunities to Afghan people. People should take advantage of the benefits of their services. Other organizations require paid fees to learn. AIL provides free courses to all people. One of the students said, “My name is Hewad. I am a student of the computer class. I have finished the Access program and I am now in the 14^th grade. After finishing this course, I want to be a teacher in one of the schools. The LC has effectively taught me computer programs. I am thankful to the AIL office for providing this opportunity.”

Thank you for your continued support.
