Computer Literacy Training
Recently we had the opportunity to bring our staff to East London for a basic introduction to Computer Literacy training.
Kingsley from Go2Websites, designed a basic introduction course. How to use a keypad, how to send emails, create documents and save these documents. Most of our staff had no experience whatsoever in using computers. It was an excellent introduction.
Implimentation:
With us removed from Mpame for a short while, these new skills are enormously helpful for easier communications. We have also set up Watsapp groups and even have very successful conference calls. Staff development is very important to us in working towards sustainability of Educare Mpame.
The Impact of Computer Literacy Training on Educare Mpame Staff
At Educare Mpame, investing in our staff means investing in the future of our children. Our recent computer literacy training initiative has already begun to bring about meaningful change. Here’s how:
1. Improved Administrative Efficiency
• Staff can now manage attendance records, reports, and communication digitally.
• Time saved on paperwork means more time dedicated to the children.
2. Enhanced Communication
• Email and digital platforms allow for faster, clearer internal and external communication.
• Staff can now connect more easily with parents and stakeholders.
3. Access to Educational Resources
• Teachers can now access online tools, learning materials, and creative lesson ideas.
• This enriches classroom experiences and keeps teaching methods up to date.
4. Professional Growth
• Staff gain valuable, transferable skills that boost their confidence and career development.
• Empowered employees are more engaged and motivated in their roles.
5. Better Record-Keeping and Reporting
• Digital tools improve accuracy in data collection and reporting to authorities or funders.
• This ensures compliance and transparency in our operations.
6. Foundation for Future Growth
• With basic computer skills in place, staff are better prepared for future digital initiatives.
• It opens the door to training in more advanced tools and systems down the line.
