Graduation for women and girls take place

Springs - Seventy nine women and girls between the ages of 15 to 69 benefited from an Intel Programme and recently graduated.

According to founder of the college, Bongi Nkosi-Sibeko, RSN College/Siyafunda Community Technology Centre has targeted the development of computer literacy skills for women and girls in disadvantaged areas.

“The programme gives women, youth and co-operatives in disadvantaged communities, the basic skills needed to either start micro-businesses or simply to enter the job market.

“It is also unique in that the lessons are self-taught, with the trainer acting as a guide and coach and the programme is flexible to cater for different needs and skill levels,” says Nkosi-Sibeko.

Motivational speakers were entrepreneurs from the Black Business Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
