In the heart of the Copperbelt, in Zambia, MTN organized a digital skills and entrepreneurship masterclass, a remarkable initiative aimed at empowering about 35 young individuals from remote areas of the region.
The training which was supported by the Zambia Information and Communication Technology Authority (ZICTA), Access Bank Zambia, and GOPES Class Zambia, helped pave the way for a brighter future in the digital world.
The MTN Zambia General Manager of the Northern Region led the charge, accompanied by over 33 enthusiastic staff members. Together, they discussed the fascinating world of Artificial Intelligence (AI), providing comprehensive training to the eager participants.
The MTN staff also dedicated their efforts to imparting essential computer skills, including proficiency in Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. The excitement of the event was heightened by our collaboration with ZICTA, who enriched the training with crucial knowledge on cybersecurity, digital footprint management, personal information protection, and fraud awareness.
Additionally, Access Bank Zambia played a pivotal role by focusing on financial inclusion and wealth creation, guiding the youth on how to navigate the financial landscape effectively.
Meanwhile, GOPES Class Zambia brought a dynamic element to the training, teaching the art of business pitching in the digital era.
