Computing classes remain popular at all AIL Learning Centers that are able to offer the subject. AIL buys computers or updates computing equipment whenever possible and has received some specific funding for this purpose. Electricity supply can sometimes be a problem at centers and this obviously affects the computing classes. Afghanistan’s electricity network needs development and is under stress in certain areas and at certain high demand times. The centers do their best to work with this, as with any other problem.
In January 2015, there were 408 students studying computing in Herat Province. Of these 242 were female and 153 of them adolescent girls. There are 19 computing classes and 8 teachers in Herat centers. Kabul Province has 228 computer students and 85 of them are in a special English/Computer combined class.
