[QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 49824, member: 636"] Nigeria's education ministry teams up with Amazon's AWS Academy to teach students about computers and technology. Dr. Maruf Olatunji Alausa leads this effort to help young people learn cloud computing and machine learning skills. The program wants to close the gap between students who have tech access and those who do not. Officials say this training will help graduates compete for jobs around the world. The partnership supports the government's plans to improve education across the country. Forty-three universities and technical colleges already joined the pilot program. The ministry wants every school to participate, whether government-run or private. School leaders must pick coordinators who will work with Amazon and the education department. These coordinators will choose teachers who will train their students. The system ensures everyone can take part without confusion. Students and teachers will earn certificates that employers recognize everywhere. The education ministry pays half the certification fees and Amazon covers the rest. Participants complete their training without spending any money. Private schools and state institutions can sign up through the ministry's website. The second round of registration starts within weeks and officials want schools to apply quickly. [/QUOTE]
