Thanks in part to your support, more youths and young adults are getting the computer training they need for success in today's technology-driven environment. On January 19, 2023, the Develop Africa Sierra Leone (DASL) team held a graduation ceremony at the DASL Computer lab for fifty-nine students who completed the Microsoft office computer training and the hardware & networking course.
Each graduate received a certificate of completion for intro to computers and Microsoft Office- Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, Microsoft PowerPoint/Presentation, Microsoft Publisher, Microsoft Access/Database, and Microsoft Internet Browser as well as a hardware & networking course.
Being proficient in Microsoft Office can help students stand out to potential employers and give them an edge in job interviews. Additionally, many jobs require the use of these programs, so having a solid understanding of them can make the transition to the workforce smoother. Each of the graduates said that DASL's investment in their education has made a lasting impact and they are forever grateful.
You are truly making a lasting difference for these future leaders in Sierra Leone. If you haven't had the chance to sign up for a recurring donation yet, we warmly welcome your ongoing support for the future leaders of Sierra Leone.
